IndiGo Cuts Europe Long-Haul Schedule, Halts Copenhagen Flights From Feb. 17

The goal is to protect on-time performance after longer block times stretched its six leased 787-9s.

Overview

  • Flights to and from Copenhagen will be suspended from February 17 until further notice.
  • DelhiManchester services drop to four per week from February 7 and to three from February 19, while DelhiLondon Heathrow reduces to four weekly from February 9.
  • IndiGo cites evolving airspace closures linked to geopolitical tensions plus congestion at airports as drivers of the adjustments, which have lengthened flight times.
  • Cancellations to Tbilisi, Almaty, Tashkent and Baku are extended through February 28 because the routes avoid Iranian airspace and A320neo range limits make detours unviable.
  • The airline is offering rebooking, refunds and compensation to affected customers, noting the reductions were originally slated for the summer 2026 schedule but brought forward to stabilize operations.
