Air India has reduced frequencies on several international routes for three months as rising fuel costs and geopolitical tensions increase pressure on airline operations globally.
Tata Group-owned Air India is likely to reduce its international flight operations after posting a loss of nearly Rs 20,000 crore in FY26, amidst rising aviation fuel costs, according to senior officials.
The revision in fuel surcharges is expected to increase airfares; however, Air India said it will continue to absorb a significant portion of the increased cost.
The Airbus A320 was coming from Bagdogra and reportedly had 148 people, including six crew members on board.
In a heart-stopping incident, an Air India Delhi-Mumbai flight declared an emergency moments before its scheduled landing.
The Tata Group-owned airline said that the move is expected to help Air India save $1 million annually.
Tata-owned Air India has operated its first ferry flight of A350-900 aircraft from Singapore to Toulouse with its new livery.
Tata owned carrier is charged with civil aviation requirements violation.
Tata Group-owned airline would add more than 200 weekly flights over the next six months on the back of expected new aircraft deliveries.
