Welcome to the club! And thanks a lot for the lovely comment. Enjoy the rest of the content. Made by an avgeek for fellow avgeeks ✈️

A week back I was searching for a vlog to see how is Indigo’s B777 found nothing. So I was very happy to see your vlog today. Very good trip report and your captions are very informative. The amount of details you mentioned are amazing and also as I love plane spotting I liked all the flight details you put up. I m sure lot of hard work hours go into it as you have to make note of the aircraft types and the origin/destination details to put up in the video. 👍🏾 Coming back to the Indigo B777 I feel if the interiors are with the original 6E seats it will look good as they have re painted the aircraft they should also install their seats. Currently it looks confusing. Indigo is known for their low cost model so they should stick to it even in their B777 but offer lower fares. With these high fares it does not seem worth it to take this flight as I can get a ME airline flight for a lesser price at full service. As I stay in Chennai all flights are 1 stop and if Indigo is charging a premium doesn’t make sense. It’s almost $500 RT not worth it at all for the low cost model. If it’s $250 I ll fly indigo to IST.

Same situation for Bengaluru as well. Was about to book IndiGo until I saw what they offer for the price. Etihad didn’t have a big price difference at that point and I went with them instead. Instead of nonsense like changing terminals in Mumbai at the middle of the night, it was better to take an overseas layover for this one. Just my thoughts.

I like your video especially highlighting some of the facts about B777, instead of the standard going thru the seat layout and food etc. Keep up the good work mate!

I really liked your video …. Being a pilot my self … it was wonderful and respectful to all of us .. and you got the best parts… you gave your views and all valid .. please make more

I flew from Istanbul to Mumbai on 13 July. What a pleasant flight! Didn't feel like it was a 16 year old plane. Silent engines and smooth take-off and landing. We arrived 20 minutes ahead of scheduled time in Mumbai. Will definitely fly again with these people. By the way I was offered seat 25A at the window, next to the left engine cowling.

Silent engines, GE 90 115Bs ? I dont think so.Not ear shattering, but not whisper quiet either.

I come for the flight reviews, stay for the technical details haha! Amazing video as always, I've been waiting to see how the new B777 experience from Indigo feels like. I've flown 6E umpteen number of times in the domestic sector (will be flying international with them in just 3 months) and I've always loved the brand. Never had any weird crew encounters, my only ever uncomfortable experiences in Indigo could be the fellow passengers lol. Most 6E flights I've taken reach well before time, and I absolutely LOVE that. My only quip with the airline would be the food, but then again, what more can you expect for the price. Coincidentally, your choice of cup noodles and Coke zero is literally my staple every time!

787-9 would be an ideal aircraft for them with around 400 eco + some premium eco seats. Even though they wanted to be a feeder for TY on North American routes but filling those 532 seats with no food or IFE or WIFI would be a struggle. I think Indians are now willing to pay a little extra for premium products.

So sweet of you, thanks a lot!!! What a great trip that sounds like. I’ve been to Mauritius plenty of times with Emirates and to Newcastle only once. It is however one of the coolest flights on EK as it is usually on the high density 2 class B777-300ER and the runway there is the shortest that EK operates to, so have a lot of fun! If it is a 2 class aircraft there are some seats in front of the engine, where the business class usually is at. Have fun!

I have flown Indigo nearly 50 times and have never experienced a rude crew member. However, I always find Indigo crew to be really unprofessional and super-slow. Maybe that is due to the poor quality of training. However, sometimes i have found very nice Indigo crew and had memorable experiences with them. Looking forward to the next video1

And I know it isn’t fun to work for low cost carriers vs some of the better carriers with better conditions, but a customer shouldn’t be paying for that.. I know you “get what you pay for” but that doesn’t mean you should roll eyes at a simple request of mine… anyway, I don’t mind. Each experience and airline is different. For this amount of money I recommend to forget IndiGo and try someone else. I hope you keep experiencing enjoyable moments with them!! Thanks for writing!

Its interesting to know that there are Indigo flights to Istanbul from Delhi and Mumbai. I regularly fly from Brussels to India every year once or twice. Found Turkish Airlines- Indigo code share Flights from Brussels, via Istanbul, to Mumbai. Only problem is 12 to 15 hours transit time at Istanbul. I dont mind going to downtown resting at a Hotel and back to airport. I hope there is a Premium economy section as well, if I can find a not too expensive upgrade! Thanks for the nice flight report with all details! I wonder how you know which aircrafts arrived from where or departing to where!

Wow I wanted to see an aviation video regarding the indigo B777 to turkey and voila, I find your video! Honestly, I was really excited to see a bigger plane in indigo livery and wanted to see what sort of service were they providing in it because I have always wanted them to have a better customer centric service flying long haul.. but I am disappointed and a little confused to see what complicated joint system both TK and indigo have agreed to! No IFE, no hot meals especially for indigo passengers and those so called amenities- my goodness, I was horrified to see them! No wonder not much passenger load is visible on this route. If I hadn’t seen your video, I would have been seething with anger at such a convoluted service! Thanks so much for proving us with this vicarious experience! It’s much appreciated.

Looks like the only positive thing out this flight is the great quality of your video. Second one I watch and I'm hooked!

I think Indigo will have a tough time running this ultra low cost model on long haul flights. For an average Joe, they don't understand the difference in revenue models. They'll simply compare what services other airline companies provide on the same route, and would expect the same from Indigo. And unless Indigo price its flight really low, people won't mind shelling few extra bucks for the comfort that comes along with it. Comfort is really import on any long haul flight. Just my 2 cents.

Hi Alex, your intros are a piece of art! You have been flying on the aircraft, that used to fly mass Russian tourists on charter flights to mostly affordable international resorts - Hurghada and Sharm-El-Sheikh in Egypt, Antalya, Phuket and Pattaya. Many passengers and consuming alcohol before and during a flight, and large numbers have been duplicated on baggage bins so they have a better chance of finding their's row. With the lowest costs in mind, Azure never cared about using the entertainment systems they received from previous carriers like Emirates. This airline was always having troubles with scandals, changes of management, very poor service, and troubles with state authorities. So, Alex, you tried and tested the mud of flying a Russian charter airliner. What upsets me, is that an airline like IndiGo with a state-of-the-art fleet of neo airliners seems not to care much about customer service too. Second-hand amenities are even worse than what Azure was offering on these "drunk" charter flights. Thank you again for your amazing trip reports. You are the first KZreadr I would pay to continue watching your trip reports if you run out of money or goodwill and desire to share your experience with aviation geeks!

Wowwwww I didn't expect you will make a video on indigo's B777 that quick. Its has been hard to find pics oThn their B777. From what I see your point, YES, it is hard to fill 500+seats in economy and only one row of business class is available. If they want to make their long haul aircraft more famous, they gotta add services like hot meals on board, WiFi, Blankets,pillows,IFE but with some exceptions. Like have less quantity in food serving or maybe for IFE, have free TV shows, but make people pay for movies & games. Their leasing plan is quite nice but the service could be much better.

loved it, May I know how you get to understand each and every detail of the plane standing at the airport? Especially their destination or where the plane is coming from?

Fantastic trip report, was happy to have come across it. I might be going to India and a TK-Indigo combination was one of the options. Was curious to see what the product is like. It's definitely a major no as this product is disastrous. It's definitely not worth the money. TK should really do something about it so as to improve this onboard product.

Unfortunately, Indigo showed they have miles to go with such shoddy inflight service and amenities - best if they stick to the LCC model and not try to punch above their weight. Edited to add that Indigo's cabin crew are known to be rude even when unprovoked. I have flown Indigo several times on domestic and Int'l legs and I have felt the same way.

What happened to your leg?! You flew on IndiGo? haha. (tight seats on the A320neo). I returned last week from leave and my mother in law had one of those massage guns which never left my side. Enjoy it and get better!

Heyy thank you for this video. Please also cover the route of CCU-DXB B777-ER Emirates

So cool! Glad you got to see him 😊

May I ask how you identified the destination/origin of each aircraft that you flight passed?

Indigo is the third airline to fly 777-300ER to fly from Mumbai to Istanbul, with the other being Turkish Airlines and now defunct Jet Airways, which is interesting if you think about it. And fun fact: I actually flew on this exact plane twice when it was flying for Emirates, one time from Dubai to Karachi back in 2016, and another time from Lahore to Dubai back in 2017. I would love to see Air India fly to Istanbul as they too have partnership with Turkish Airlines through Star Alliance.

Great report.🙂 Q. Is Barcelona ok to travel to over the new year?

It's amazing to see IndiGo finally launch international service, though the quality may not be great, it's definitely a big step that IndiGo has taken

Indigo already flies to several international routes . This is the first wide body plane in their fleet

They already flew to Istanbul on the A321neo with seems a bit more suitable, although the B777-300ER is more comfortable. I hope the experience improves.

2:48, The Emirate's new tail livery looks okay and the title is bigger and bold than the normal standard livery and the title is normal. But I prefer the normal standard livery because it matches the tail.

I have booked this flight next month. Got a layover in Istanbul and then again an indigo flight to Prague. Hope they don’t disappoint

I was booking some tickets today and found insanely cheap indigo flights, such as 200$ from Amsterdam to Mumbai. Nuts! So yes, why not!? Hope you have a nice one!

@9:34 and I also used to notice hydraulic sounds every time she would flare just seconds before touchdown. Us crew siting at door 4 could hear it clearly.

Completely true Neville! And I wanted to mention that as well but I don’t know exactly what the reason is. I believe the plane changes from flight to ground mode and sort of prepares for spoiler deployment etc. But I’m not 100% sure so I’ll have to confirm. On an anecdote, not even my B777 pilot friends knew much about this as they simply never heard from the cockpit!

Wow it’s sooooooo cleeaaaan

Running LCC business on long haul is quite surprising tbh! Unless I'm on a really really low budget, I would always prefer to pay a bit extra and get a ticket of full service carrier for 7h flight. Can't imagine being crammed in a 500+ grumpy passengers with no entertainment and proper food!
