It has previous orders totalling 480 aircraft, which are yet to be delivered.  “With this additional firm order of 500 aircraft for 2030-2035, IndiGo’s order book has almost 1,000 aircraft yet to be delivered well into the next decade,” the airline said in a release.

IndiGo’s order book includes A320 NEO, A321 NEO, and A321 XLR aircraft.
