“As we expanded, took these aircraft, and grew our network, our customers have always been at the heart of everything we did. From the time that we launched the lie-flat seats on our Airbus A321 aircraft, the first in Asia, to the time we started offering Live TV onboard and now complimentary Wi-Fi for our Club Vistara members – we have been and will continue to remain committed to our customer centric approach. We’ve significantly expanded our network from Delhi, Mumbai and lately Bangalore, and all this has been a great journey with a lot of ups and downs. No one forgets the trials and tribulations of the global pandemic a few years ago. All this was also possible because of the efforts and the continuous support from all of you – our customers, our partners, and our staff.
