IA in an acronym that stands for “Indian Airlines” was primarily a domestic airline of India with few exceptions of international destinations in neighboring countries. The enterprise started its business in 1953 with an aim of connecting local areas of India and providing a platform between India and international countries as well. Indian Airlines is remodeled with a name of “Indian” to meet the broad-based requirements of travelers. It was merged with Air India after 2007. According to the financial statistics, the move did not prove to be beneficial for both companies. Before the merger, the IA and AI were making handsome profits and operating at best levels. However, the plans of synergy and large-scale financial benefits failed badly.

Talking about the performance of this airline, it offered low priced tickets while providing reliable, comfortable and efficient services to passengers. These tickets could be availed online and reservations / cancellations of these tickets could be made online as well. The aircrafts are wide bodied and tagged with a logo, which is inspired by the chariot wheel of Konark’s sun temple in Orissa. The interior is equipped with excellent standards and technology. To give a more fascinating looks, the body was also redesigned with a colorful and cultural look.
