In its first full year of operations, AirAsia India carried a total of 1.46 million passengers on more than 10,000 flights.

Releasing its full-year results for 2015, the low-cost carrier also revealed that its average load factor was 81%. The strong full-year result marked a 324% increase in passenger traffic compared to 2014, although the airline only started operating in June of that year.
