Indian Carrier Struggles After Fatal Crash And Operational Issues
Air India is facing a record annual loss of $1.6 billion after a tumultuous year marked by a fatal Boeing 787-8 crash and operational troubles. The airline had initially hoped to break even in the year up to March 31, 2026, but plans were derailed by a series of events, including the crash and Pakistan’s closure of its airspace to Indian airlines. The impending final report into the Dreamliner crash may include criticisms of the carrier, further complicating its recovery efforts. This development was first reported by AeroTime.
