The Indian airline industry had an outstanding October with Dussehra and pre-Diwali vacation drawing close to 88 lakh domestic passengers to air travel this month. In October last year, airlines had carried only around 52 lakh domestic passengers, 70% lower than the month this year. 

The negative aspect of the October growth was that it was “sinusoid” with weekend peaks and weekday troughs.
