Industry sources said the flights on top 10 busiest routes had not crossed their pre-Covid peaks because of a lack of slots at major airports, planes grounded due to a delay in engine supply, financial issues hobbling certain carriers, and tough competition.
Among the top 10, Delhi-Srinagar was the only route that has crossed its pre-Covid peak. India's busiest route continued to be Delhi-Mumbai, where 36,500 flights were scheduled in 2022.

The second highest YoY growth, among the top 10 routes, was observed on the Mumbai-Bengaluru route in 2022 at 57 per cent.
