IndiGo is the only Indian airline to have made it in the list of top 20 mega airlines.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Punctuality League Report is a comprehensive annual report presented by OAG that reveals rankings of all airlines – mainline, low-cost and by region. The report aims to highlight carriers who have consistently demonstrated high performance and deliver on their promise to get passengers to their destinations in a timely manner. For detailed analysis, the OAG defined OTP as flights that arrive or depart within 14 minutes and 59 seconds (under 15 minutes) of their scheduled arrival\/departure times. IndiGo has been recognized amongst major carriers such as Singapore airlines, Qatar airlines, Japan Airlines, Delta Airlines, American Airlines, Southwest, British Airways, Spirit Airline and Jetstar Asia.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Speaking on this recognition, Mr. Aditya Ghosh, President and Whole Time Director, IndiGo said, \u201cWe are thrilled … just can\u2019t hide the excitement of having been able to take India and IndiGo to amongst the very best in the world and one of the Top 5 Mega Airlines globally in terms of On-Time performance in the OAG Punctuality League 2018. Flying our planes On Time is one of our core promises to our customers. This achievement reinforces IndiGo\u2019s commitment of providing our fliers with an on-time, hassle free experience at low fares, always.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

As per the DGCA data, IndiGo among all operating airlines has successfully maintained highest on-time performance on a month-on- month basis over a long period of time due to its unmatchable operational efficiency and faster turnaround.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

The entire fleet of over 150 aircraft is equipped with technology called Aircraft Communications Addressing and Reporting System (ACARS). Before departure of every IndiGo flight, an automatic message is trigged from the aircraft via ACARS to our operations control centre (OCC) \u2013 and immediately the same departure time gets recorded in the software. Likewise, the moment an aircraft lands at the destination, an automatic message is trigged from the aircraft to the OCC. These timings are recorded \u2018real time\u2019, automatically through ACARS i.e. without any human intervention. Hence, our On Time Performance is diligently monitored for every flight \u2013 real time.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

In addition, IndiGo closes the check-in counters for all 6E flights operating across all destinations, 45 minutes prior to the departure. This move is in compliance with the directions and procedures specified in Air Transport Circular 10 of 2009 issued by the DGCA, and also helps the airline minimize operational disruptions.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
