IndiGo, the leading airline in India commanding a 62% share of the domestic market, is set to introduce the gender-neutral honorific ‘Mx’ at the time of booking tickets. This move aligns with its broader strategy to enhance inclusivity within its services.
The ‘Mx’ option, already available with Air India Express and Vistara, will offer transgenders who prefer not to identify themselves more comfort and recognition. Sukhjit S Pasricha, Group Chief Human Resources Officer at IndiGo, highlighted this as part of their inclusive approach.
Furthermore, IndiGo aims to double its workforce of disabled individuals in the next financial year, alongside numerous initiatives to support the LGBTQ+ community—including specialized employee referral programs and benefits like gender reassignment surgery and medical insurance coverage for live-in partners.
