Fleet
Template:As of, IndiaOne Air operates a fleet of three Cessna 208 Caravan single-engine utility turbo prop aircraft suitable for short regional sectors.[5] The aircraft has a capacity to carry nine passengers, and ideal for connecting smaller airports with limited infrastructure. The aircraft are equipped with advanced avionics (Garmin G1000 NXi) and is fitted with a cockpit voice and data recorder, usually uncommon for such smaller aircraft.[1][6] In November 2025, IndiaOne Air signed a letter of intent to acquire up to ten de Havilland Canada DHC-6 Twin Otter aircraft at the 2025 Dubai Airshow. The new aircraft, which are designed for short takeoff and landing operations, will enable the airline to serve remote and hard-to-reach airfields with shorter runway lengths.[7]
