Air India to launch premium economy class on select domestic routes from July
This is the first time the airline has introduced premium economy cabins on its narrow-body aircraft.
Air India, owned by the Tata group, is set to launch its first premium economy class flight next month.
The airline will introduce the A320neo flight, which will offer both premium economy and economy class on selected routes.
The company's first aircraft will have three configurations, featuring 8 seats in business class, 24 in premium economy along with extra legroom, and 132 in economy class.
Campbell Wilson, Chief Executive Officer & Managing Director of Air India, stated that the upgrade of the narrowbody fleet complements the upgraded widebody experience available on their current fleet and new B777s, as well as on all other widebodies as they are refitted over the next two years.
"This comprehensive upgrade is an important step in Air India's transformation into a world-class airline," he said.
