Delhi: Vistara Airlines will discontinue its operations under its current brand name on November 11. The airline’s services will be completely merged with Air India, commencing on November 12. This marks the final stage of a merger process that began almost two years ago.

The merger unites Vistara, a joint venture between Tata Group and Singapore Airlines, with Air India, which is also owned by Tata Group. The move aimed at streamlining operations and delivering a more cohesive travel experience to passengers.

As part of the deal, Singapore Airlines will acquire a 25.1% stake in the newly consolidated Air India. This transition has received approval from the Centre, including clearance for foreign direct investment (FDI) by Singapore Airlines in Air India.

Effective September 3, Vistara will cease to accept bookings for travel beyond November 11. After this date, all operations previously managed by Vistara will be transferred to Air India. Passengers with bookings for flights after November 11 will be redirected to Air India’s booking system.

“Vistara will continue its regular flight operations and bookings until November 11, 2024,” the airline confirmed. From November 12 onwards, all Vistara aircraft, along with their crews, will transition to Air India. The routes previously operated by Vistara will become part of Air India’s expanded network.

The merger was first announced in November 2022, with both airlines working collaboratively to ensure a smooth transition. Campbell Wilson, CEO and Managing Director of Air India, emphasized the importance of maintaining continuity for passengers and staff during the changeover. “Cross-functional teams from Air India and Vistara have been working together for many months to ensure the transition is as smooth as possible for our passengers, staff, and valued customers,” Wilson stated.

For passengers already booked on Vistara flights post-November 12, the transition will be handled automatically. While flight numbers will change to reflect Air India’s operations, schedules, aircraft, and crews will remain consistent until early 2025. Both airlines have prepared a set of Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) to assist travelers through this period of transition.
