Lessors manage to fly out half of Go FIRST planes 
The Wadia owned Go FIRST’s voluntary filing of bankruptcy in May 2023, had surprised many with the lessors being the foremost to be caught unaware. Plagued by issues with Pratt & Whitney engines, dispute with P&W over the award of Singapore Arbitration and mounting groundings led to the airline management deciding to get out of the airline business. What ensued was a long drawn battle in the courts over possession of planes which the airline did not own and had stopped paying its lease rentals.

Top 20 International routes from India by seats
India was one of the first markets to recover from the pandemic. The Indian domestic industry was back and ahead of pre-COVID numbers in 2023, with a setback of one major airline shutting down. This was a year ahead of IATA’s prediction. On the international side, though, the air traffic remained muted and part of the reason was lack of capacity due to supply chain issues.
