Flight cancellations benefit Middle-East carriers

Mumbai/Bangalore: The Air India flight cancellations have disrupted the holiday plans of several travellers.
However, it is the Middle-East carriers that are benefitting from the present imbroglio.
Travel agents and tour operators said that Middle-East carriers such as Emirates, Qatar Airways and Etihad are seeing a rise in their load factors.
“These flights are almost 90 per cent full,” said a Mumbai-based travel agent. In fact, there has been a drastic shift of travel preference for other carriers as a result to AI flight cancellations.
