New Delhi, 24 March (H.S.):
Tata Group carriers Air India and Air India Express will jointly operate 24 scheduled and non-scheduled flights to and from West Asia on Tuesday even as services to several destinations remain temporarily suspended.
The airlines disclosed the limited schedule via a post on X highlighting continued operations to key hubs like Jeddah and Muscat alongside extra UAE runs subject to slot availability and local conditions.
Both carriers will maintain their regular Jeddah services totaling 10 flights between India and the Saudi city. Air India plans one return flight from Delhi and two from Mumbai while Air India Express will fly one each from Hyderabad and Kozhikode. For Muscat Air India Express has four scheduled round trips from Delhi and Mumbai locked in.
Beyond those the group flagged 10 non-scheduled UAE flights dependent on departure station situations. Multiple routes face ongoing halts due to the volatile West Asia backdrop now in its eighth week since late February flareups.
