Ahead of the two airlines' merger next month, more than 140 systems have been connected, and 2.7 lakh Vistara reservations have been transferred to the Air India system.

On Tuesday, Satya Ramaswamy, Chief Digital & Technology Officer at Air India, stated that major efforts are underway to fully address Vistara customers' experience across all digital systems after the merger.

He added that more than 140 systems have been connected and that 2.7 lakh Vistara passenger reservations have been transferred to Air India during a special media conference.

In addition, almost 4.5 million Vistara loyalty members have already switched to the Air India system.

"The Air India systems, which are the ones that customers would use, are at a different level technologically. In other aspects, like as aircraft and services, the Vistara experience would be identical. We will combine the finest features of both airlines," Ramaswamy stated.

The in-flight experience and Vistara routes and timetable will remain in place, according to Air India's announcement last week. Flights using Vistara aircraft would be designated 'AI2' after the merger.

Singapore Airlines will hold a 25.1% share in Air India once the two full-service carriers' merger is expected to proceed on November 12.  

In respond to to an inquiry, Ramaswamy stated that Air India plans to double its revenue from direct sales in the coming years.
