India's Vistara is talking up the prospects of adding widebody aircraft to its fleet if it can buy slots at the UK's London Heathrow.


A report in CH-Aviation says Vistara wants to order more wide-bodied aircraft and to start flying to Europe and the United States. A Bloomberg report suggests Singapore Airlines - a 49 per cent shareholder in Vistara - wants to compete harder against Emirates in India.

By 2023, Vistara - with B787s joining the fleet - wants to have a 50/50 split between domestic and international flights.
