IndiGo adds London-Heathrow to growing list of long-haul European destinations
IndiGo will fly daily to London-Heathrow Airport (LHR) as the airline looks to increase its growing list of long-haul European destinations.
The low-cost carrier announced the launch on its 19th anniversary with October 26, 2025, marked as the start date of the new international route.
It is not clear yet which Indian city IndiGo plans to connect with Heathrow and the route is still subject to regulatory approval.
“Today, we are delighted to announce our next strides in international markets, especially our daily, direct flights to London Heathrow. Looking ahead, we are hopeful to continue winning hearts and accolades in India as well as globally, as we expand our operations across the globe, one airport at a time,” said Pieter Elbers, CEO of IndiGo on August 4, 2025.
IndiGo will receive five additional Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner aircraft in the current financial year under its damp-lease arrangement with Norse Atlantic Airways.
