India’s aviation industry is currently grappling with a severe crisis caused by supply chain disruptions and engine failures, with a particular focus on Pratt & Whitney engines. This has led to airlines like IndiGo and Go Airlines being forced to lease extra aircraft, which in turn has spiked costs and decreased operational efficiency. The situation has resulted in a significant number of aircraft being grounded, putting a strain on capacity even though ticket prices and passenger load factors remain strong. The industry is facing a challenging period as it navigates through these issues, seeking solutions to maintain operations and meet the demands of passengers.
