Abstract: India’s aviation industry is largely untapped with enormous growth opportunities, provided that air transport is still expensive to most of the country’s population, almost 40 per cent of whom are the upwardly mobile middle class. The industry will engage and work with policy makers to adopt effective and rational decisions to improve India’s civil aviation industry. The primary aim is to identify the factors responsible for low sales of Air India. Secondly, the aim is to evaluate the causal relationship between factors identified and the dependent variable airline choice. It was found that Air India should reduce the cost of ticket on both domestic and international flights. Customer doesn’t find services delivered up to the mark. The quality of food, service of cabin-crew, lateness of flight and safety should be improved by Air India to remain competitive in the market. It has become and more imperative for the Air India to prove its mettle and not just settle on the taxpayers money bailed out by the exchequer but also on price, service and safety ground.
