Also this week, IndiGo debuts business-class cabins to venture beyond budget travel for first time.

Vistara operates its final flight on Nov 11 before its planned merger with Air India kicks in the following day

By folding Vistara into the much larger but unprofitable Air India, the Tata Group has taken on one of the most complicated aviation mergers globally that included navigating pilot protests which led to dozens of canceled flights this year. Even as the two merging airlines try to reassure passengers there will be minimal disruption, travelers and aviation enthusiasts across India are mourning the end of Vistara.

Devoted Vistara fliers are worried about the fall in cabin service standards post merger – one of the things that made the airline differentiate itself in an industry dominated by low-cost airlines. Air India has said Vistara’s catering is set to be extended to all planes across the new merged airline, in an effort to assuage some of such concern.

Premium travelers on its planes will get benefits like priority check-in, anytime boarding, a more generous baggage allowance and a 5-inch recline seat.
