Air India is cutting 145 additional weekly international flights due to rising fuel costs, airspace restrictions, and operational pressure.
Most businesses see this as an aviation issue.
Tenali Explains,
“Maharaj, this is actually a lesson in ‘Theory of Constraints’.
When conditions become unpredictable, protecting profitability becomes more important than chasing volume.
Instead of operating every route aggressively, Air India is reducing low-efficiency sectors to protect cash flow and operational stability.
That is exactly what TOC teaches:
Identify the biggest bottleneck and optimise around it.
Many businesses continue serving every customer, product, and market even when some segments silently destroy margins.
Sometimes reducing capacity is not weakness.
It is strategic survival.”
