Behind Air India's Worldwide Expansion
Vložit
- čas přidán 14. 10. 2024
- recently air India has ordered a total of 470 planes from both Boeing and airbus. this has been a really big news all over the world. but in India, nearly every airline has some planes on order. combined with 500 of indigo, 72 of akasa, and 17 of Vistara, the total number of ordered planes in India exceeds a thousand. but apart from these orders, the air india order happens to stand out the most. and this is because it is the single largest order in terms of aircraft numbers in history.
This order will likely prove to be extremely important for air India and will allow them to expand their network worldwide. the growth in coming years for Air India and overall Indian aviation will surely be historic.

Please do subscribe the channel because we are ramping up our videos as well😂.
What's the point of making a video. If you cannot spell the main character right. It's TATA.
Air India was a trendsetter once, it set the golden standards of luxury air line travel, CEO of emirates told in an interview that his first international air travel was in a Air India flight and he was awestruck by the service, Singapore Airlines wanted to follow Air India's standards and they took advice from Air India, the beetles band preferred Air India flights for world tours, hope that Air India becomes great once again..
Air India is the Worst ever airlines in the world
Don’t hold your breath. Work ethic today is different from that era.
Air India was owned by Tata. The govt nationalised it and over last 50years literally ground it to dust… finally Air India is coming back to its original owner ie Tata
@@nitinkapoor4752 Still the same
@@kishanbhandari3886 But Workers involved in Rome would be totally efficient. Air India staffs doesn’t even know how to behave with customers. If they goes like this , you can say destruction of Air India didn’t happened in a single day . But because of poor staff maintenance and poor softwares
Air India was also the leading airline in the 1970s. But after the government took control of Air India in 1951, the airline started falling after a few decades. Now, the Tata group has bought it and it is coming back. Even Singapore airlines used to visit Air India to know how they operate so well worldwide. Also, it was created by the Tata group and is in the hands of Tata again.
I can't wait to see Air India coming back and ruling the aviation industry.
Yeah it will be fun watching air india rise up again. Also, great info there buddy.
Thanks
Yes , I can't too
Air India didn't really have anything to do the Founding of Singapore Airlines in the 1970s.
It did not fall after 1951, though government took control, still JRD Tata was at the helm. Downfall was from 1990s
Back in the days Singapore airlines etc used to visit Air India facilities in India JUST TO KNOW HOW THEY OPERATE SO GOOD ACROSS WORLD,no doubt those days AIR INDIA WAS AMONG TOP 5 premium CARRIERS in the world.
Actually that's why Tata's and Singapore Airlines have a very good relationship. They both started Vistara and now SIA will have 25% stake in the merged Air India.
Now, it is a Honeymoon time for Tata name, ownership and Mgmt. If urination, bad serviice on air as well as on ground continue, it will drown! For sure
Tata sia partner ship put air india back and gave the confidence back to rule the international routes .party time over for middleeatern airlines
Hopefully Air India rebrands it's brand looks and logo and colour scheme etc to make it look new, exciting and pleasent
i think they will, when the new planes arrives.
Already a company based in Britain has been hired for the same.
@@avikpaul bro thats delta interior and they wont be changing it because of supply chain isues
Yes, Air India needs to change their livery. Too much of a negative image related to the current brand. Ideally they should rebrand entirely like Swiss Air did.
ikr the cureent color scheme is honestly shit
Air India doesn't need to compete with the Middle East Airlines - they need to provide reliable and convenient service from the cities of Bangalore, Hyderabad, Chennai, Kochi etc to more destinations in North America and Europe. Its very difficult to fly to Bangalore - one of India's leading cities to most European and North American destinations without wasting hours waiting for connections.
Also, why are all the Air India flights from Delhi or Mumbai? Most passengers from and to the Southern states shouldnt have to go the long way around when airports in Hyderabad, Bangalore etc have more than enough capacity and capabilities to handle the traffic.
Finally, I dont think there is a single non-stop flight from India to any South American city, which is quite shocking for an international airline.
There is no aircraft which can fly the route currently and not impose heavy losses for the airline given the current demand for this route
The connection is for more passengers .but rightfully said they need to fly direct to southern America maybe weekly twice .it's. shocking as many take long detours from Dubai or hongkong
Air india needs a reformation, from aesthetic and color combination. The interior looks bad and cheap. The plane's body design is also bad. In all, the maharajah theme is old and tbh a disrespect to a Maharajah status.
I agree, they for sure need a brand reformation and i think they are currently working on that as well.
Interiors I agree but outer body it's cool not bad..
Logo and name will be change
@@Imparth2995 Name will not change, idk about logo but the livery is going to change and will be unveiled with new interior design around mid 2024.
Interiors yes but the livery is classy. I wouldn't change that
Air india should also focus on African market
yeah, that's a completely untouched market for indian carriers.
Maybe they can East Africa but in guessing that can only sustain 1 airline which Ethiopian already does.
I hope I get a direct flight from Johannesburg to Mumbai one day
Yeah these routes r completely pilfered by emirates. Airindia would focus on Nairobi, johanasssberg,Kampala and few north African countries.
Currently only 2 Indian carriers serve Africa which are Air India serving Delhi-Nairobi route and Vistara serving the Mumbai-Mauritius route and that's kinda sad..
I will definitely miss Vistara.
By 2028, Air India will be amongst top 3 global airlines in terms of quality & service.
Yeah, i think so too.
for SURE it can be, but only if they change their attitude from Airport Staff to all crew members...
@@SalmanKhan-kb9ln yes
@davischan4623 Your thoughts will not change the course of action.
Seriosuly doubt it.
Apart from more planes and expanded service, Air India needs to severely ramp up its onboard product and standard of service if it wants to compete with the ME3 and Singapore Airlines which are the industry leaders in products and standards of service
Yeah, cabin improvement is a must for competing, and i think they'll unveil the new product with the delivery of their new planes.
Air india have also signed a MOU with Singapore Airlines
Singapore Airlines have 30% stake of share in air india
And 70% stake holds TATA Group
@@abhi_singh337 it's 25.1%
2:40 Of all the cities in india, thanks for choosing mine for the example. 😊. Feels good to hear that being 4000 Kms away from home.
My pleasure 😊
So India is creating jobs in USA, France and UK with this order. The total order value of 68 Billion USD means 15% GDP of countries like Norway or GDP equivalent of countries like Lithuania!
It's also creating jobs in India. The TATA Group plans to hire 4000+ employees inc. 900+ pilots and 3000+ ground staff after this deal.
True, it is the best time for indians looking for a job in aviation.
Those are list prices and they probably are paying half that. That's normal for such a large order. So probably in actual money changing hands you're looking at about 35 billion. That revenue will take up to 10 years to come in since it will take that long to take so many aircraft. They don't get paid 90+% of the revenue until delivery.
Many of those jobs will be done by Indians abroad and Indian offices in Bengaluru. Aircraft manufacturing isn't a self sufficient business that a single country does.
There is another way to think about it: Tata is doing this to capture a chunk of the international market and to prevent foreign airlines from competing in India's domestic market. So in the future when Indian Aerospace industry reaches enough technological maturity to build airliners comparable to Western ones, Tata's airlines will be a big customer and then we will get to see an even more massive order placed by Tata for Indian planes.
Things happen in steps. Rome was not built in a day.
Great to see I work at international airport and it’s great to see Air india 🇮🇳 taking over the aviation world
Hopefully Air India's improvement makes them a decent competitor with the middle eastern ones. Any competition is a good competition.
More competition and Cheap fair is what I am excited about
Cheap fares definitely cos u avoid connections and extra docking fees but unlike emirates who wage price war airindia can't afford to reduce too much.
*It's India growth Story* 💪🇮🇳💪🇮🇳
If Air India wants to make it presence on International level, it has to accept total transformation, needs to change livery, cabin decor and service quality has to improve and maintain, cabin crews must be presentable and knowledgeable. On number of occasions I have experience uncomfortable seats, uncleanliness everywhere. I want Air India to be ⭐ star again but it has to pull socks up. All the best Air India.
Nothing wrong with the livery. Not sure why companies waste extraordinary money repainting all their planes. I’m not going to fly air India on its paint scheme. I will fly of for service, price, and modern aircraft
3:04 Actually these 2 cities were also served from India and Air India also served Delhi-Los Angeles route until 2006, I hope it resumes soon and Delta Air Lines served Atlanta-Delhi flights until 2008 or 2009, Atlanta-Mumbai route until 2008 and it resumed and ended again on 2011 or 2013 I guess and they also served Atlanta-Chennai route until 2008 or 2009 before replacing it with the New York JFK-Paris-Chennai route, which ended in 2012 or 2013... Atlanta-Delhi flights also resumed during 2014 I guess but they were pretty short-lived.
I think they should have kept Vistara as sub brand under Air India for premium segment, it would have been fresh compared to the old Air India image.
great to see air india on the up, the air india ceo is a new zealander so hopefully one day they will have direct flights india to nz, here's hoping ,regards , Bruce
Widebody of Vistara will go to Airindia while Narrowbody will go to Airindia express and AIX
Good content. Hope to see this channel at great heights in future.
An airline started by J.R.D. Tata, a pilot himself, was taken over by the government of India which acted like a bully, and over the next few years showed how incompetent it was at running a business. Moral of the story: government should mind its own business, and let people like Tata run their own business in a competent manner.
*As they say, it's india's decade.*
Yeah, it looks like it is.
This was long overdue. Not necessarily for Air India, but for any India based airlines. As an Indian American living in the US for two and half decades, I've always wondered why do I always have to fly with a non Indian airlines. That didn't make any sense. Air India has been flying a few routes from Chicago and New Jersey I believe to India (mostly Delhi), but that didn't help me much as I live in the west coast and I fly primarily to Mumbai or Kolkata. I had flown by Jet Airways once and had a lovely experience. Jet was one of the best airlines, not just in India but Worldwide in terms of Service. They are planning to come back and I sincerely hope it happens. That will be even better for the Indian market. Fingers crossed.....Vistara imo is currently the best airlines in India. But during my recent trip to India last month, I took four flights by four different carriers and I must say I was very impressed with the new entrant Akasa Air. Brand new fleets and good service too. Hope they too can grow and survive......
EVERY INDIAN 🇮🇳 AIRPORT SHOULD HAVE ATLEAST TWO PARALLEL RUNWAYS..
Caps lock bole ekta bepar hoy.
thousands of orders to only these 2 companies tend me to think that why there only 2 commercial aircraft manufacturers????? answer is that these 2 companies prevent other companies to develop aircraft through Lobbying to keep Duopoly.
Well, that's interesting
Well back then indonesia try to join the market by providing narrow body and non jet aircraft but unfortunaly asia crisis happen and imf want indonesia to closed that factory if indonesian want to borrowed they money
Once half of these ordered planes arrive, I’m sure they’ll place order for more aircrafts. Tata group is very huge, for sure in coming decade we’ll see Air India operating to whole of USA and Europe.
The company name is Tata's group not TITUS ...
It's clear she has no idea what she's reading. They need a script writer with an adult vocabulary and a fluent narrator.
Glad to see this. The planes also need a Livery change as well.
The old "MAHARAJA" will back under TATA management
As a huge fan of air India, I wish all the very best to the airline. May it succeed in all its future endeavors and make India proud again❤.
Air India will need to totally rebrand if want to compete with other airlines as old fashioned at present the interiors and service below par
Don’t forget that the biggest Asian airport in Jewar, India is being constructed right now with first terminal operational by Oct 2024.
indigo also ordered 500 after air India deal
At 2:17 you mean "Qatar" instead of "Doha".
as per reports, indigo also going to purchase 400 more aircrafts.
350-1000s are so good for long hauls..!!
I think so too!
I travelled Delhi to Melbourne. Very nice experience. I recommend Air India
Vistara will be terribly missed! 😢
yeah, lots of people are saying that
I am confident, Air India will become a 5 star airlines in the very near future. Can’t live in the past. India itself is on the move forward. I look forward to taking to the skies on a modern airliner from my home country
Its very easy to compete with IndiGo for the domestic routes as their seats are very narrow with almost no legroom. They have a baggage weight limit of just 15 kgs whereas Air India as a limit of 25 kgs and it has inflight meals which IndiGo does not.
France and Germany and Italy and Spain and many other eu countries that are all part of the Airbus consortium working on commercial aircrafts
TCS can run their entire IT operations which is huge benefit for AIR INDIA…
Concept AirIndia must change. It’s not the number of planes only!! Quality issues continue to dog the airline . The airline has to ingrain SERVICE into the older staff as well as into the new ones. It needs to be better than the rest.
Also their IFE is Uther SHÎT
Not only serving US direct flights but india aviation ministry has developed new local airports in small citites but these airports despite having huge demand doesn't have enough planes to fly to metro citites or south east nations directly. Such as deoghar International airport in deoghar jharkhand.
I think you’ll find all Airbus wings are also made in the UK, not just RR engines.
Proud of honest giant amazing Air India,👍🙏😊
Hoping for Hyderabad New York direct flight
For now and Future:
Located between West and East
with 20% of world population active..
INDIA has to start manufacturing Aircrafts : both: Passenegr; Cargo: Airforce.
for India and the World..
start designing the best.
start innovation with Integration of tech with AI..
Start design building most POWERFUL HEARTS that is the ENGINES..
NOW
This is Trillons of dollars in business.
start focus now.
Make the impossible happen
I thing minister VAISHANV with PMModi backing
can make it happen..
It's not in the cards for India to be a competitor in the airframe or engine market. You have to be realistic about these things.
@@johniii8147 He literally wrote "Make the impossible happen" LOL
@@CAHSR2020 I'm a realist.
How they going fly planes they haven’t even been able to get my lost bag to me and it’s been 15 days with no updates from air india.
India🇮🇳
It's the spirit airline of India.
I am just waiting to TATA to introduce direct flights from Bengaluru to Detroit, North America. Right now through Frankfurt. Or through Chicago.we are flying. Through LUFTHANSA or Emirates.
To have a healthy competition, Air India should have middle east and Singapore airlines code sharing like star alliance of Europe. This will strengthen their presence all over the world.
From an Indian origin PM to Indian company creating jobs and economic growth, especially UK (introspect and give India back what belongs to India)
Yes most high traffic routes to Frankfurt,London, Paris,Dubai,hosting Texas,newyork Dallas,Chicago dominated by emirates and flown by Indians so having the chunk of this traffic is what india needs.and our tatas just don't care of profits.if they know they're a market they'll invest and people have faith in their products
LOVE FROM INDIA 🇮🇳
Air India is a prime example why nationalisation does not work in every sector and fall prey to corruption.
This is Air India 🇮🇳
The problem with Air India starts right from trying to book a ticket. Every facet of this Air Line is a stumbling block. Customer Service is a joke. Ground Staff are ill informed and rude. Similar issues afflict the Cabin Staff. They NEVER make eye contact with you! If you want to lodge a complaint, every body disappears. The recent incident where a man urinated on an elderly Lady during a flight beggars belief. And the fact that she was made to sit on the same soiled seat is horrific. The man responsible was let go scot-free without any charges being filed. The Toilets on Air India are filthy, no attempt is made to clean it up. As the flight progresses, some toilets are locked! The interior of the Aircrafts are shabby and unclean. Food service is mediocre at best. The Cabin Staff are not trained to properly serve a meal, even in business class. And are nowhere to be seen once the meal service is over. The Tatas now have a boil on their backside! It will be interesting to see how the Maharaja can be revived, he has been on life support for decades. The only smart thing that the BJP Government has done is to shove this problem on some body else’s head!!
Houston has a major Indian community, my fellow friends have to fly with Qatar or Emirates. This would help a lot
Travelled last month from USA, terrible experience. Longgggg way to go..
I'm curious whether there has been any initiative to develop Made-in-India airplanes, given Modi's aggressive push for Made-in-India products. Are there any existing structures or incentives in place to encourage this? For instance, could negotiations involve assembling parts of the planes in India to help with skill development and technology transfer? Additionally, do you think India's aviation push, combined with efforts to integrate tourism, has the potential to divert some traffic away from the UAE and other Gulf countries as transport hubs?
Even many highly developed countries can't make their own Aeroplanes. Its need world class engineers and infrastructure which currently India lacks.
There will be a complete and gradual revamp of domestic and international flight routes as the new planes get delivered. More competition for international carriers for sure,
especially on direct non-stop routes.
I think Air India will be able to conquer the US Indian routes if they put the new planes
Fuel cost for Middle East carriers is major advantage which cannot be offset.
Forget about Competition or brand, It didnt order any B777 or A380. Plus I feel with such a fleet, (Quantity>Quality>Maintainance and Care with a One Shot Order) Now the accidents and Crashes probability will Increase. Also considering the fact that its Air India(accidents) and mass order includes Boeing 737MAX(accidents) and A320NEO(no brand image). I think they don't give a damn about brand. As a business mindset Their Order will increase their market and profit just that it would still be hidden and infamous.
Get rid of old color scheme it has become synonymous with delay, bad service and huge image problem for air india. New color scheme will do some work to uplift the brand in general
I want air india to start direct flight from all the majors cities around the world like Tokyo Sydney Chicago Los Angeles hong kong wellington Seattle especially from mumbai there are only 2 direct flight new york and San Francisco.
Well, the new wide bodies ordered by Air India are specially for these routes, however it would take a little bit of time for them to arrive and then to be implemented.
Air India needs rebranding as mentioned in comments for sure, but I hope they do not discard the maharaja icon. There is history behind it and success story before it was taken away from TATA by the government.
Before expanding they better improve the existing once and atleast make all the infotainment system working in the current aircrafts. Oh plus ensure the seats and food trays are cleaned after each trip.
which text to speech AI you used?
Adding new hardware(s) alone will not make AI a glorious airline. Improved and elevated online/reservation system, significantly improved customer service including upgraded airport lounges and cabin experience are key to improve its position as a leading airline in the marketplace. Even after a year of Tata take over, AI is yet to see daylight with the above noted criteria(s) which don't have to wait for new aircrafts.
They have signed , 1yr of No -change policy of staff and facilities with the govt for smooth exit of employees and pilots and adding new logo , service etc with govt of India, which will end on 31st March '2023....You will see a rapid improvement of everything shortly sir...
AIR INDIA should fly direct flights fro all 30 states capitals to the destinations;
West or East.
AIR INDIA is the BEST.
Air India is a long way from "ruling" anywhere… buying more planes does not cover the extremely poor and low quality image that people associate the airline to. The livery and interior design is dated and cheap… and the seats build is terrible. Air India’s 787 is the only 787 that I didn’t like at all. The only way I can think of Air India "ruling" over international routes is if their ticket pricing is wayyyy cheaper than all other competition - because at similar pricing people would much rather buy a quality service. If Air India wants to "rule" it needs major changes - to its design, service, branding - and needs to mend the low quality reputation it has in the mind of air travellers
Best part is the way she says TATAs 😂
Air India needs a reformation, from aesthetic and color combination
Go Air India! Gov made it almost extinct.. But tata's actually working to keep it alive!
Vishnushom a member india 🇮🇳
Meanwhile Air India passengers are sill tapping on seat monitors that dont work on transcontinental flights and making sure to wear perfumed rain coats during the flight🤪
No credit for footage eh?
Is it cool if i put in the description?
By the way, been watching your videos for a long time, you're one of the few channels on yt that have air india's landings and departures in such a good quality👍😂.
@Broadvay if mentioned in the description on both videos then yes it's ok.
Alright
The Air India potential will be actualized only when the flying experience of the passengers is world class. New planes are just a part of the story.
Exactly!,
Air india customer care number doesn't exist.
Surprised by the total lack of service available
If you see the history TATA Group was the first Indian Airliner the started the Airlines business (It was brainchild of Naval Tata), due to some political reasons it was given to Indian Govt. which did not do well due to corrupt Administration, So Mr. Ratan made it a mark to keep up the vision and reputation high. If the Tata Sons are involved in any kind of business deals, i am 100% sure that they are committed to deliver what they have planned and Promised, with Vistara merger they would have got a significant hold in the market.
SIMPLY TATA..DON'T WORRY..AIR INDIA WILL BE THE BEST CARRIER IN COMING YEARS INTERNATIONALLY....TATA
Honestly I prefer Vistara's design & branding over Air India's. Sad that its gonna go away after the merger
Airline is a tricky business. Many reputed names have gone belly up ever so often. Air India comes with excess baggage of public sector culture & financial pitfalls. While we wish all success to the new team, we know decks are loaded against this entity that has had troubled past. Our fervent hope is that we the taxpayers are spared yet another haircut via public sector bank NPA.
Recently travelled in Air India - both in domestic and international segments. The worst experience and service i have experienced in my life in any airline. Emirates and Singapore airlines is a distant dream. They should try and match the service of low xost carrier like IndiGo. I don't think even that is possible. The staff is a bunch of entitled people who feel they are doing us a favour by letting us travel in Air India. True cattle class.
Changing planes won’t do much, you need to change mindset of employees, better reservation system, accessible customer care, and also need stricter standards on board as well.
All of those things are virtually non-existent right now.
Guys , this just means air India has big plans and it is putting in orders so that it has planes ready to go into service when it needs them …. Bigger question is whether their projections are correct ? Only time will tell, but frankly I have low confidence in their ability
It's because the government asked the TATAs to do so. Tatas always wanted back the air india for more than 50 years now. There's a business term "If you want to be a millionaire invest your billionaire money in airlines". So that now TATAs are taking the risk to improve the air connectivity in india. They gave the airport operations to Adani so that he can earn the risk free money. Adani business model has been as such as risk free, unlike TATAs and Ambanis they don't provide much of the job creating business. instead manages ports and airports.
Air India was and always will be by the Tata's for the Indians, except for a time frame where it was snatched from the Tatas and made it a flag carrier by the then rulling government
There are millions of people who have sworn that they will never board an Air India plane again. Service is terrible, they bump you without any reason in order to give your seat to a Minister, the US Government fined Air Indian millions of dollars for not refunding the money for cancelled flights, the flights are delayed all the time, while the on board service is acceptable, the ticketing, the customer service, the complaint department are sub-par..bottom line, they just dont care. Many times, I had to bribe Air India personnel to have my issues resolved. Never again Air India.
We are capable to expand aur india
Hope the service and food will be better
Yeah, hope so
Kitchen was dirty kitchen manager he taste the from the big instead he put some buryani in the plate 😂
Really??😂😂
Air India Needs to Change their Hindi font as the current font doesn’t seems to be modern
Yeah, is agree💯
That's TATAs for you kids, Longer legacy than the Indian Government
No working monitors. Ripped seats. Not to mention the food. Gross. Worst airlines ever!!!
Air India should change is livery n changed to same as Vistara...Purple n gold r very vibrant colours..Ths red and orange are too boring...
