Mumbai-Delhi remains world's third busiest domestic route in 2018: OAG

New Delhi: Mumbai-Delhi remained the world’s third busiest domestic route in 2018 with 45,188 flights operated by six airlines during the year, averaging almost 124 flights daily.
UK-based air consultancy firm OAG on Tuesday released the “busiest routes 2019” report which featured Bangalore-Delhi as the 19th busiest domestic route with 28,716 flights by seven airlines between the two cities last year.
 Mumbai-Delhi was the third domestic busiest route in 2017 too but that year saw 47,462 flights between the financial and political capitals of India.
 This number went down 4.8% in 2018 as demand for domestic air travel in India is slowly cooling down while India still remains one of the world’s largest growing aviation markets. Indian airlines have been cancelling flights in past few months due to various reasons like financial crunch and pilot shortage.
