Air India tries to stabilise operation, scraps 10 more flights

New Delhi/Mumbai: Air India on Tuesday tried to stabilise its international operations by clubbing flights to destinations in Europe and the US as the pilots' strike continued for the eighth day, leading to cancellation of 10 more flights.
"We are trying to operate a minimum number of international operations by clubbing flights to destinations in Europe and the US," a senior Air India official with the operations arm told.
"We have clubbed Delhi-Paris flights with those of Delhi-JFK (John F Kennedy airport at New York). So, the flight has left Delhi and will land in Paris and then go onwards to New York and from there back to Delhi. We are monitoring the situation and informing the passengers in advance."
The carrier's low-cost international wing, Air India Express, cancelled four flights. The ongoing strike and subsequent flight cancellations by the airline have disrupted holiday and other travel plans of hundreds of people.
