Air India to Resume flights to Australia

June 23, 2010

Air India will be operating direct air services between Melbourne and Delhi from the Winter Schedule 2010. The services will meet a long-felt demand for direct connectivity between India and Australia.

Air India will be resuming services to Australia after a lapse of over a decade. Apart from serving the Indian Diaspora in the region, the new link will cater to the growing demand of business travelers not only between the two countries but also beyond India to the Gulf and Europe.

The services will be operated with B-777 aircraft on a daily basis. The air services are expected to begin by late October/early November this year.
