IndiGo Cuts 200+ Daily Flights; Rivals Poised to Fill Gap

• IndiGo will cut over 200 daily flights, a 10% reduction of its winter schedule, due to government orders.
• The cuts follow thousands of cancellations and disruptions caused by internal mismanagement and crew rostering issues.
• The Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) and the Centre mandated the reduction to stabilize operations.
• Other airlines like Air India, SpiceJet, and Akasa are expected to fill the capacity gap created by IndiGo's cuts.
• IndiGo's market share is projected to fall from 63-65% to 55-57% after the redistribution of flights.

Why It Matters: IndiGo's flight cuts will redistribute market share and affect passenger options.
