Air India has decided to scale-up their operations in West Asia to help faster passenger movement in wake of on-going hostilities between Israel and Iran.
Additional flights to Europe, US have been announced for the month of March 2026.
On Sunday the 8th of March 2026 it was announced that Air India will deploy additional capacity to five key gateways in Europe, as well as to New York (JFK)1 over the next few days, supported by additional services to the Maldives and Sri Lanka, in response to sustained high demand for reliable travel options amid the ongoing situation in West Asia.
According to an official release, between 10 and 18 March 2026, Air India will operate 78 additional flights on the following routes, thus boosting much-needed capacity when travel options for passengers remain constrained: Delhi-New York (JFK)1, Delhi-London (Heathrow), Mumbai-London (Heathrow), Delhi-Frankfurt, Delhi-Paris (CDG), Delhi-Amsterdam, Delhi-Zurich, Delhi-Male and Delhi-Colombo.
Together, these flights add 17,660 seats on nine routes in both directions.
The additional flights on the European routes will operate with B787-8, and those to Male and Colombo will be operated with A320neo aircraft.
The flights to New York (JFK) are subject to the requisite regulatory approvals and would operate with Air India’s B777-300ER aircraft.
