IndiGo lifts months-long hiring freeze to recruit pilots amid mass cancellations

IndiGo hiring: Budget carrier lifts recruitment freeze as cancellations persist, invites applications from pilots

IndiGo crisis: Amid the crisis that halted India's flight operations for nearly a week now, IndiGo has lifted its freeze on pilot hiring, issuing recruitment calls for its A320 family. This comes after thousands of IndiGo flight cancellations persisted for days, owing to the new pilot resting time rules of the government, which have now been lifted.

In a notification issued on its website over Friday and Saturday, IndiGo has invited applications from captains and senior first officers (type-rated) as it lifted the hiring freeze that started months ago.
