Considering an expected surge in cargo transportation, particularly to transport COVID-19 vaccine once it is available; the Indian carrier IndiGo is mulling launching dedicated freighter services. The airline has already held preliminary-level discussions with European aviation major Airbus on the type of freighters that could be possibly put into service for dedicated freighter flights. With SpiceJet already in the market, this consideration by IndiGo will definitely bring competition in the air freight market and equally boom in the airfreight industry too. |
