Air India's owner said Tuesday that the carrier is buying 250 Airbus passenger jets, a mammoth order underlining the surging demand for air travel fueled by the country's swelling middle class.
The airline is buying 40 wide-body A350 aircraft and another 210 narrow-body A320neo planes, Tata Sons Chairman Natarajan Chandrasekaran said in a videoconference with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and French President Emmanuel Macron.
