No solo women passenger on Vistara Airline will get the middle seats
As per the #VistaraWomanFlyer scheme, a woman passengers will have the liberty to choose the preferred seat on the plane while booking the air tickets and during the web check in. This scheme was officially launched by Vistara airline in the month of March. By far, over 100 woman passengers have availed the scheme while travelling alone on Vistara airline.
Reason why Vistara airline started scheme for women passengers
Vistara Airline has introduced this scheme for helping women passengers on board and when they arrive at their destination. These services are launched on the basis of the feedbacks given by the female passengers. A few female passengers have told in their feedback that they do not feel comfortable at all sitting in the middle seats especially with men as their co- passengers. It becomes really difficult for them to sit or move in the aircraft and makes them feel like a sandwich between two strangers. Therefore, Vistara Airline will only allot seats to the solo women passengers either on the window side or by the aisle.

If any of the solo female passenger on Vistara airline wishes to seek help with luggage and transport under the #VistaraWomanFlyer scheme, they need to approach Vistara staff.
This is a well-thought initiative of Vistara airline for the benefit of solo women passengers on board.
