Air India Express
The seventeenth Boeing
737- 800 aircraft owned by Air India Express, VT-AYC, arrived in Delhi on
October 3, 2009. With the induction of this aircraft, Air India Express now has
a fleet of 24 aircraft, including seven leased aircraft.
The new aircraft tail
showcases an image of a traditional Patola saree from Gujarat which is finely
woven in the double Ikat weave, in rich silk and decorative patterns. The other
side has the image of a typical Naga hand woven woollen shawl with red and black
coloured stripes and hand painted motifs on the centre band, woven by the women
of Ao Naga tribe from Nagaland. The tail designs are an innovative and
novel feature of the Air India Express aircraft. These aircraft showcase the
picturesque landscapes, monuments, birds, animals, handicraft and dances of
India on both sides of the tail.
