And that’s a wrap on @IATA’s 81st AGM—hosted by @IndiGo6E at the iconic Bharat Mandapam in Delhi 🇮🇳
A power-packed few days of high-level aviation dialogue, strategy, and global collaboration
Key Discussions:
✈️ Aircraft shortages still holding back growth
📈 Demand is robust, but supply remains tight
1,692 aircraft to be delivered in 2025
17,000+ aircraft in backlog
Waiting time of up to 14 years for some airlines
🚨 Supply Chain Woes:
🔧 OEMs blame suppliers
💼 Suppliers blame labour and capital constraints
Bottom line: the recovery is unprecedented, but supply chains haven’t caught up
Major Announcements:
🛩️ IndiGo to order 30 more Airbus A350s
🌍 Signs multi-airline codeshare with:
— Delta Air Lines
— Air France-KLM
— Virgin Atlantic
🇮🇳✈️ Air India:
— Codeshare with Icelandair
— Expands pact with Air Mauritius
Next stop: Rio de Janeiro 🇧🇷 for the 82nd IATA AGM in 2026
