Flights to India will depart from Birmingham every day after an increase on the back of rising demand.
Air India has committed to increase its Birmingham-Delhi-Amritsar operation from four flights per week to daily services from November, when its 18th Boeing 787 ‘Dreamliner’ aircraft is inducted into service.
The announcement comes on Air India’s first anniversary of operating from Birmingham Airport and after the post reported 50,000 people had taken the flights from the city.
The airline’s commercial director Pankaj Srivastava: “Since starting our four times weekly Dreamliner programme from Birmingham Airport last year, we have handled more than eighty thousand passengers on board 210 flights, serving business passengers, tourists and people visiting friends and relatives.
“Air India is committed to develop and grow in this market and once we have taken the delivery of our 18th Dreamliner aircraft in November, we hope to launch the daily operation from Birmingham Airport.
