Undeterred by its losses, state-owned Air India seems bullish on the international aviation market where it deploys 70 per cent of its capacity in terms of available seat kilometer, or ASKM.
The airline is planning to launch direct flights to Toronto and San Francisco in the winter schedule, besides extending its Delhi-Moscow flight to Copenhagen and Stockholm with a frequency of twice every week. It will shortly seal code-share agreements with LOT Polish Airlines and TAP Portugal to bolster its passenger revenue.
Air India will also shift its operations from London’s Terminal 4 to Terminal 2 to ensure smooth transfer of passengers to Star Alliance member-carriers. Its system compatibility with those of Star Alliance and the Heathrow airport is currently being tested.
“We are studying various routes for operation. We are looking at several long-haul destinations like Toronto, Copenhagen and Stockholm. Several initiatives are in the works. We have finalised code-share agreements with LOT Polish and Air Portugal. It will be signed shortly," a senior Air India official said.
