Turkish Airlines partnership provides multiple benefits to travellers, enhances connectivity: IndiGo

Turkish Airlines partnership provides multiple benefits to travellers, enhances connectivity: IndiGo

Business Mayor15-05-2025

Currently, IndiGo operates direct flights to Istanbul with two leased aircraft from Turkish Airlines having over 500 seats each. It also offers codeshare seats to more than 40 points in Europe and the US.
A codeshare partnership allows an airline to book its passengers on its partner carrier and there will be a single ticket.
An airline official told PTI that the ongoing air traffic between India and Turkiye needs to be viewed in the context of the bilateral Air Services Agreement (ASA) and the overall construct of international air services to and from India.
The ASA allows carriers of Turkiye and India to operate a total of 56 flights per week between the two countries — 14 flights from India to Turkiye and 14 flights from Turkiye to India each by Indian carriers and the same number by airlines of Turkiye.
This arrangement with Turkish Airlines provides multiple benefits to Indian travellers, and the country's economy. The additional long-haul capacity has enabled availability of seats for Indian passengers at reasonable airfares, coming at a time when long-haul international airfares have increased substantially owing to the impact of Covid, the official said. According to the official, the operation of the two aircraft to Istanbul serves as a vital engine for economic activity to support trade worth billions of US dollars between the two countries and also helps create numerous job opportunities in India. With the codeshare partnership, international travel has become more accessible and affordable as passengers benefit from cost-effective two-stop flights from India's smaller cities to Europe and the US.
'The codeshare has enabled IndiGo to build its presence in the long-haul markets in Europe and the US, putting in place the foundation for self-sufficiency, i.e. its long-haul foray with the 40 A321 XLR and 30 A350 aircraft ordered by the airline,' the official said.
Over 3 lakh Indians visited Turkiye in 2024.
Further, the official said the arrangement with Turkish Airlines not only enhances the connectivity of hubs like Delhi and Mumbai but also brings in additional revenue.
IndiGo has a fleet of more than 400 planes and operates around 2,200 flights daily. The airline connects over 90 domestic and more than 40 international destinations. It has 10 codeshare partnerships.

Andrew Cuomo Says He'll 'Spend 8 Years in Washington' Fighting Trump if Elected N.Y.C. Mayor

In a new interview with Andrew Cuomo, the former New York governor said he hopes to take on the Trump administration's Medicaid cuts if he is elected mayor of New York City. Andrew Cuomo is currently running as both a Democrat and third-party candidate to unseat N.Y.C. Mayor Eric Adams, who is facing federal criminal charges. Cuomo is also currently under investigation by the Department of Justice for allegedly lying under oath to Congress about COVID-19 deaths that happened during his tenure as Cuomo is running for mayor of New York City, but he's already pitching it as a position with national impact. In a new interview with Politico, the disgraced former New York governor shared that, if elected mayor of N.Y.C, he would leverage his power to take on the Trump administration's Medicaid cuts. 'I would spend eight years in Washington — go to that U.S. Conference of Mayors, go to the National Governors Association,' he said. 'He's cutting Medicaid. Medicaid is not a blue-city, blue-state situation. That is in every state. That is a lot of red congressional districts. And he could lose the House on cutting Medicaid if you organized it and got it moving.' New York City receives billions of dollars in federal funding every year, which would certainly provide Cuomo with a political link to D.C. However, even if he wins the November 2025 mayoral election, the new mayor would not officially take office until Jan. 1, 2026, giving him just over three years until Trump's successor is sworn in as the 48th president of the United States. Cuomo's insistence on Medicaid as a national issue, however, has amplified murmurs that his plan to win the mayoral seat is merely a springboard to the Democratic nomination in the 2028 presidential election. Regardless of his future plans, Cuomo, 67, said that he expects that any Democrat who might win the mayoral race will be scrutinized by the Trump administration, calling it the 'price of admission.' 'Assume any person who becomes mayor will be investigated. Just assume that. If they oppose Trump, he will investigate them for leverage,' he said. Cuomo is speaking from experience. On May 20, The New York Times reported that Trump's Department of Justice had opened an investigation alleging that Cuomo lied while testifying to Congress about New York nursing home deaths during COVID-19 that occurred during his time as governor. Cuomo's spokesman, Rich Azzopardi, told the newspaper that the investigation is an attempt by the president to take out one of Eric Adams' strongest competitors. 'We have never been informed of any such matter, so why would someone leak it now?' Azzopardi said. 'The answer is obvious: This is lawfare and election interference plain and simple — something President Trump and his top Department of Justice officials say they are against.' He added that Cuomo 'testified truthfully to the best of his recollection about events from four years earlier, and he offered to address any follow-up questions from the subcommittee — but from the beginning this was all transparently political.' In response to Cuomo's quotes about leveraging his mayoral power to fight the Trump Medicaid cuts, White House spokesperson Kush Desai fired back, 'The last time Andrew Cuomo had a say in health care, thousands of New York's most vulnerable perished in nursing homes due to Cuomo's blatant incompetence and disregard for science. Cuomo is not the white knight that Democrats are looking for to stop Republicans' commonsense effort to protect Medicaid by taking illegal immigrants off the program.' Cuomo first announced his bid to unseat Adams, who recently faced federal criminal charges, in a post shared on X on Saturday, March 1. "Our city is in crisis. That's why I am running to be Mayor of New York City," Cuomo wrote alongside a 17-minute video, in which he explained his decision to run. "We need government to work. We need effective leadership." The politician served as the 56th governor of New York from 2011 to 2021, before resigning in August 2021 after an investigatory report was released that alleged he "sexually harassed multiple women." Cuomo appeared to allude to his resignation in his announcement video, saying: "Did I always do everything right in my years of public service? Of course not. Would I do some things differently knowing what I know now? Certainly. Did I make mistakes? Some painfully. Definitely." Cuomo is polling as the front-runner in the Democratic mayoral primary, though he has said he will run as a third-party candidate in the general election whether or not he wins the Democratic nomination.

Trump tariffs live updates: Trump hikes steel and aluminum tariffs to 50%, spares UK

President Trump doubled tariffs on steel and aluminum imports from 25% to 50%, effective June 4, according to a proclamation he signed on Tuesday. The United Kingdom is the only country exempt from the hike. Meanwhile, Trump's trade war is causing the global economy to slow, with growth now heading for its weakest pace since the COVID-19 pandemic, the OECD warned on Tuesday. The OECD cut its forecasts for most G20 economies and warned that easing trade tensions is key to boosting investment and keeping prices stable. Álvaro Pereira, the OECD's chief economist, said countries need to lower trade barriers. 'Otherwise, the growth impact is going to be quite significant,' he said. 'This has massive repercussions for everyone.' The warning comes as the US is pushing countries to speed up trade talks. The White House confirmed Tuesday that the US had sent a letter to partners as a "friendly reminder" that Trump's self-imposed 90-day pause on sweeping "reciprocal" tariffs is set to expire in early July. White House advisers have for weeks promised trade deals in the "not-too-distant future," with the only announced agreement so far coming with the United Kingdom. Meanwhile, US tensions with two key trade partners amped up on Monday after Trump promised last weekend to double tariffs on steel and aluminum. The White House said he will sign an order to do so on Tuesday. China responded to Trump's claim on Friday that it has "totally violated its agreement" with the US, in turn accusing the US of breaching the agreement and vowing to protect its interests. The US-China detente — reached earlier this month, when each country eased sky-high tariffs on the other — looks more fragile amid both trade-related and other tensions. US trade talks with the EU have also come back into focus as an early-July deadline also looms for Trump's 50% tariffs on imports from the bloc. The EU on Monday said it "strongly" regrets Trump's hike on steel and aluminum imports, saying it undermines planned trade talks. Meanwhile, Trump's most sweeping tariffs face legal uncertainty after a federal appeals court allowed the tariffs to temporarily stay in effect, a day after the US Court of International Trade blocked their implementation, deeming the method used to enact them "unlawful." Administration officials also hinted that court rulings would not be the final say. Yahoo Finance's Ben Werschkul has an overview of the other maneuvers Trump could pursue. Here are the latest updates as the policy reverberates around the world. The White House on Tuesday confirmed that the US has sent a letter to trade partners seeking to speed up talks ahead of a self-imposed July deadline. Though Reuters reported earlier this week that the administration asked for countries' best offers by Wednesday, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt on Tuesday framed the letter, which she said was sent by the US Trade Representative, as a "friendly reminder." "I can confirm the merits in the content of the letter," she said, per Bloomberg. She sadded: "USTR sent this letter to all of our trading partners, just to give them a friendly reminder that the deadline is coming up, and they are in talks. The president expects good deals, and we are on track for that." Bloomberg cited a "recipient of the letter" who said it was "framed as a way to steer ongoing talks rather than an ultimatum. President Trump will sign an executive order doubling duties on steel and aluminum imports to 50%, the White House said Tuesday. Trump first announced plans to up the duties last Friday during an event with steelworkers in Pennsylvania. White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt didn't confirm the exact timing of the escalation Tuesday. Trump's most sweeping "reciprocal" tariffs are locked in legal limbo. But duties on specific sectors or commodities, like those on steel and aluminum, are so far unaffected because Trump has imposed them under a different legal authority. President Trump and his team have touted for weeks that deals are right around the corner. But progress has been less forthcoming. Yahoo Finance Washington Correspondent Ben Werschkul reports: Read more here. The aerospace industry is urging the Trump administration to hold off on adding new tariffs, as they could risk air safety and further disrupt the supply chain. Reuters reports: A group representing major U.S. and global aeropsace companies on Tuesday warned new tariffs on imported commercial aircraft, jet engines and parts could put air safety and the supply chain at risk or have unintended consequences. The Commerce Department last month opened a "Section 232" investigation that could be used as a basis for even higher tariffs on imported planes, engines and parts. The Aerospace Industries Association, which represents Boeing, Airbus, RTX, GE Aerospace and hundreds of other companies, urged the Commerce Department to extend public comments by 90 days and impose no new tariffs for at least 180 days. They urged further consultation with industry on "any Section 232 tariffs to ensure they accurately reflect national security concerns and do not put the supply chain and aviation safety at risk." Read more here. A new survey out Tuesday by insurance brokerage Gallagher showed that a majority of US business owners see tariffs as a top risk to be worried about. Reuters reports that President Trump's trade wars have already cost companies more than $34 billion in lost sales and higher costs, according to an analysis of corporate disclosures. "Our survey showed supply chain disruptions were a concern to business owners, with 90% reporting they are concerned about the impact of tariffs on their businesses," Gallagher CEO J. Patrick Gallagher told Reuters. "Global supply chains, strained by geopolitical conflicts and extreme weather events, remain vulnerable to disruptions." The findings come as tensions with China and other key trading partners ratcheted up again after President Trump threatened to double steel and aluminum tariffs. Also on Tuesday, the OECD warned of slowing growth due to trade disputes. Read more here.

Bloomberg News reports: Read more here. Reuters reports: Read more here. Global economic growth is weakening faster than expected, the the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) said on Tuesday, as Trump's trade war starts to take a toll on the US economy. The OECD cut its outlook for global output for the US and most of the G20 leading economies and warned that agreements to ease trade barriers are key to reviving investment and avoid higher prices. Global growth is expected to be 2.9% in 2025 and 2026, the OECD said in its latest full outlook. The figure has exceeded 3% every year since 2020, when output plunged because of the pandemic. The OECD said that US growth will slow sharply, falling from 2.8% in 2024 to 1.6% in 2025 and 1.5% next year. The OECD said that the Federal Reserve likely won't cut rates this year because inflation will remain too high. The latest assessment represents a downgrade to its March interim forecasts, which preceded Trump's 'Liberation Day' tariff announcements on April 2. Even then, the OECD warned of a 'significant toll' stemming from the levies and associated uncertainty over policy. The OECD also cut 2025 forecast for G20 countries, which include China, France, Japan, India, UK, and South Africa. Álvaro Pereira, the OECD's chief economist, said countries need to strike deals that would lower trade barriers. 'Otherwise, the growth impact is going to be quite significant,' he said. 'This has massive repercussions for everyone.' Compared with the OECD's last full outlook in December, growth prospects for almost all countries have been downgraded, said Pereira. 'Weakened economic prospects will be felt around the world, with almost no exception,' the OECD said.
