Air India flight schedule: Air India will resume tri-weekly Delhi-Amritsar-Birmingham. The operation will begin from, August 15, Civil Aviation Minister Hardeep Singh Puri said. The commercial flight operation on Delhi-Amritsar-Birmingham route had to be suspended after Pakistan had shut its airspace in February following the Balakot strike carried out by the Indian Air Force in Pakistan territory. The closure of Pakistan airspace led to a significant rise in Air India’s operating costs on flights.

GoAir flight schedule: GoaAir is likely to become the first domestic private carrier to fly to Bhutan. It already caters to Male, Phuket, Muscat and Abu Dhabi. GoaAir will expand its international operations to three new markets Dubai, Bangkok, and Kuwait.
