Air-India Express is a low-cost airline subsidiary of Air India based in Mumbai, India. It operates services mainly to the Middle East and Southeast Asia. The airline is now part of the National Aviation Company of India Limited (NACIL), which was formed in order to facilitate the seamless merger of Air India and Indian Airlines.
The airline was established in May 2004 and started operations on 29 April 2005. Delivery of the first aircraft for Air-India Express took place on 22 February 2005 when a new production Boeing 737-86Q (leased from Boullioun Aviation Services) was handed over.
