Air India, Vistara Full Merger


Air India Group has completed the merger of Air India and Vistara, which was announced in November 2022, Air India announced Tuesday. The closing follows the company’s Oct. 1 merger of low-cost airlines Air India Express and AIX Connect, formerly Air Asia India. 

Post-mergers, Air India Group now operates a combined fleet of 300 aircraft covering 55 domestic and 48 international destinations, according to the company. The consolidation of the four Tata-owned airlines into one group operating one full-service and one low-cost airline is part of the company’s “ongoing, five-year transformation program.”

The merger included the addition of 6,000 Vistara staff and migration of 4.5 million Club Vistara frequent-flyer accounts into Air India’s recently redesigned loyalty program Maharaja Club. 

Further, with the merger complete, Singapore Airlines, which had held a 49 percent share in Vistara, is now a 25.1 percent shareholder in Air India Group.
