IndiGo has announced the launch of 12 new domestic routes starting October 2025, further expanding its footprint across tier-2 and tier-3 cities and reinforcing its role in India’s regional aviation growth. The new services will connect key cities such as Lucknow, Varanasi, Bhopal, Indore, Jabalpur, and Vadodara to major metros, including Mumbai, Delhi, Bengaluru, and Hyderabad.
The airline will introduce direct flights between Lucknow and Varanasi, Bhopal and Lucknow, and Indore and Varanasi, enhancing intra-state and inter-regional connectivity in Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh. These routes are expected to support tourism, business travel, and regional trade, while offering faster and more efficient mobility options.
