Emirates Airline will imminently ask the new Indian government to increase the carrier's seat capacity to the Asian nation, CEO Tim Clark has revealed.
UAE airlines are continuously fighting for more access to India, which provides about 900,000 workers to the Gulf country.
The previous Indian government had long restricted landing rights but it was replaced in May by new right wing Prime Minister Narenda Modi, who has a track record of economic reforms.
Clark told Arabian Business he would move swiftly to "again bang the drum" for Emirates to have greater flying rights.
