Air Asia wanted to celebrate the growth of AirAsia in India by honouring the man without whom flying would have been impossible in India.

The Tata group has shaped Indian aviation to a great extent over the years and has been a huge support to the AirAsia India team as well. Thus, AirAsia paid homage to the legend, JRD Tata, whose desire to take the country to the skies resonates greatly with AirAsia’s own motto “Now Everyone Can Fly.”
