Air India’s A350 to serve Delhi-London route
Air India is launching twice-daily flights between Delhi and London Heathrow with the deployment of its brand-new Airbus A350-900 aircraft.
Starting from 1 September 2024, this route will mark the long-haul international debut of Air India’s flagship product.
The A350-900 will replace the currently deployed Boeing 777-300ER and Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner on 14 of 17 weekly flights. As a result, an additional 336 seats will be available on the Delhi-London Heathrow route each week.
Campbell Wilson, chief executive officer & managing director, Air India, said: “The deployment of our flagship A350s and the B777s with upgraded cabin interiors to London Heathrow marks a significant milestone for Air India. It demonstrates our commitment to elevating the travel experience of our guests to truly world-class standards and to going beyond just meeting customer expectations as we continue to renew our fleet.”
“With our industry-leading cabin products on the A350 including a new Premium Economy experience and a host of new on board enhancements rolling out, we are confident that these daily flights between India and London Heathrow will soon be the preferred choice for travellers,” Wilson added.
