Air India is set to expand its horizons with the introduction of new services to Zurich, Switzerland, and an increase in flights to Phuket, Thailand, to meet the growing demand for seamless travel experiences.
From June 16, 2024, Air India will operate non-stop flights between Delhi and Zurich, marking its debut in Switzerland. Using Boeing 787 Dreamliner aircraft, the airline will fly four days a week: Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Sunday. This development expands Air India’s European footprint to seven cities, providing travelers with direct connections between Delhi and Zurich, with convenient onward connections to destinations in the Indian subcontinent, Southeast Asia and Australia.
In response to strong demand, Air India will add a second daily service (except Wednesdays) to its Delhi-Phuket route from June 1, 2024. This improvement will complement the existing daily flights between Delhi and Phuket, offering travelers greater flexibility and convenience. With this addition, Air India will operate almost double the number of daily flights to Phuket, strengthening connectivity with Thailand from Delhi and Mumbai.
Campbell Wilson, Chief Executive Officer of Air India, underlined the strategic importance of these expansions, stating that they are in line with the airline’s commitment to delivering exceptional travel experiences and improving connectivity for passengers. “The Zurich route will appeal to both business and leisure travelers, strengthening ties between India and Switzerland. “Similarly, the increased flights to Phuket are aimed at facilitating seamless travel for guests arriving from Europe, providing them with more options and convenience,” he added.
Bookings for both the Delhi-Zurich and Delhi-Phuket flights are now available through Air India’s official channels including its website, mobile app, travel agents and online travel portals.
