In a significant shift for Indian aviation, Vistara last flight will operate on November 11, 2024, officially merging with Air India on November 12. This  Air India Vistara merger will streamline the full-service carrier options in India from five down to just one in the past 17 years. 

With this move, Singapore Airlines now holds a 25.1% stake in the unified Air India, ending Vistara’s standalone operations since its founding in the year 2015.

Vistara was India’s most recent full-service carrier launched within the last decade. Its establishment followed the 2007 merger of Indian Airlines with Air India, joining five other full-service airlines. 

However, competitors like Kingfisher (which ceased operations in 2012) and Air Sahara (rebranded as JetLite before shutting down in 2019) also disappeared as time passed.

Ahead of the merger, Air India announced several management changes. Vinod Kannan, Vistara’s CEO, will continue as Chief Integration Officer, supporting the full-service airline consolidation while reporting directly to Campbell Wilson, Air India’s CEO. 

Deepak Rajawat, Vistara’s Chief Commercial Officer, will become CFO of the expanded Air India Express, reporting to CEO Aloke Singh.

Campbell Wilson highlighted the efforts of Tata’s four airlines over the last two years, working to execute “one of the most complex mergers in aviation history.” He acknowledged the contributions of all staff involved in this consolidation, marking a new chapter for Air India.

During the first month of the Air India Vistara merger, Air India is expecting to serve approximately 1,15,000 passengers who have already booked their flights with Vistara. On the other hand, some 2,70,000 Vistara customers have already been transferred to the system of Air India. 

The Loyalty programme transition is still underway with over 4.5 million members of Club Vistara which will now be rebranded as the Maharaja Club.

I did my first solo trip in India with WanderOn. Initially I was sceptical about their Meghalaya-Kaziranga trip as I didn't have any prior experience with them but the team assured me that it's going to be one of the best experiences of my life.

In Ladakh, find the perfect blend of culture, adventure, and serenity. December last year I decided that my next trip would be Ladakh but didn’t know how to go about it. I knew I wanted to travel in a group, as I had prior experiences of traveling in a group but wanted an organiser I could trust. Ladakh isn’t like other destinations wherein you need some instructions due to the high altitudes.

After an amazing trip to Tirthan with WanderOn, I decided to go to Manali-Jispa with them and yet again, the experience was worth every penny. The place was very beautiful and the quality of service was top-notch, the itinerary was very good and the quality of transportation and stays were very good. Had an awesome time there and made some good friends as well. Lastly, our trip captains Priyasha and Rachit managed the entire trip very well and were so fun and made our trip an experience worth remembering.
