*Under the Tatas, Air India Express has become a jumbo airline* In January 2022, when the Tata group took over Air India and Air India Express, the low-cost subsidiary largely restricted to Gulf routes had a fleet of 26 aircraft, all B737-800NGs. While the group has invested in merging its four airlines to form two airlines, one full service and one low cost, Air India Express has nearly quadrupled its fleet to cross 100 planes. Air India Express is the third airline in India to have a triple-digit fleet, with the other two being IndiGo and parent Air India. This makes Air India Express one of the fastest-growing airlines. https://www.livemint.com/news/under-the-tatas-air-india-express-has-become-a-jumbo-airline-11739957350509.html
