Vistara, a full-service airline, is a joint venture between Tata Sons Ltd. and Singapore Airlines (SIA).
The name Vistara is drawn from the Sanskrit word Vistaar, which means limitless expanse. Just like the limitless expanse of the sky, the name also alludes to the limitless possibilities, which mirrors our ambitions.
Also ingrained in Vistara is the word tara, a star, which is depicted in our logo. Derived from the yantra, a perfect mathematical form representing an unbounded, perfectly balanced universe, our logo is the Vistara Star. With an eight-pointed star in the centre, the dynamically intertwined forms of the Vistara Star create a continuous shape that represents the seamless experience we will deliver.
