Air India Restores Non-Stop Delhi, Mumbai to New York Flights, Cuts Travel Time
Air India has resumed non-stop flights on all four routes connecting Delhi and Mumbai with New York, reducing travel time by up to five hours to approximately 17 hours. This follows the easing of airspace restrictions that had required technical refuelling stops in Rome. The airline operates daily flights to JFK and multiple weekly flights to Newark using Airbus A350-900 and Boeing 777-300ER aircraft, enhancing connectivity between India and the United States.
