The credit for the same is said to be given to aircraft orders by Air India, Akasa, and IndiGo. In a statement put out by the analytical credit rating agency, it was revealed that “The share of Indian airlines in international passenger traffic originating from, terminating in, or transitioning through India is seen surging 700 basis points to about 50% by fiscal 2028 from 43% in fiscal 2024.” Further explaining the numbers, it was stated that such a grand improvement will be supported by “Indian airlines deploying additional aircraft and adding new routes in the international segment, as well as their inherent advantage of superior domestic connectivity compared with foreign carriers.” The figures also highlight how Indian international travel stood at around 1 crore in FY 2021 but has advanced to a whopping 7 crore in the fiscal year of 2024, with the numbers estimated to only leap up in the coming years.

For Indian airlines, the international market will yield higher profits than its domestic counterpart

Manish Gupta, the Ratings’ Senior Director & Deputy Chief Ratings Officer at CRISIL has credited this increase to the “shift in spending patterns” of Indians, especially after COVID-19 when the love for leisure travel increased amongst the masses. The change is also said to be due to various countries welcoming tourists with open arms after the pandemic, levying more straightforward requirements and procedures in the process.
