Vistara on Thursday said it commemorated the 83rd anniversary of India's first commercial flight by organizing a special day out for underprivileged children and surprise offers for customers centred around 83. We are very fortunate to represent the great legacy of our parent brands and keep JRD Tata's zeal for flying alive, said Vistara CEO Phee Teik Yeoh in a statement. India's first commercial flight was piloted by former Tata Group chairman J. R. D. Tata on October 15, 1932 from Karachi to then Bombay, pioneering civil aviation in India.
