Air India to Restore Most Flights from September 1, Adds International Frequencies
Air India will restore most domestic and international flights reduced during July and August due to high fuel costs, starting September 1. The airline plans to increase frequencies on key international routes including Milan, Frankfurt, Zurich, Vienna, Melbourne, Tokyo, and New York during the upcoming winter schedule. The reductions earlier this year affected nearly 27% of international capacity and several routes were temporarily suspended. Despite ongoing fuel price volatility, Air India aims to return to its pre-cut schedule and expand operations.
