NEW DELHI, May 3: Air India will start direct flights from the national capital to Zurich from June 16, and the Swiss city will be the seventh European destination that will be connected by the airline with non-stop services.
The four times a week services will be operated by a Boeing 787 aircraft with a two-class configuration — Economy and Business. The flights will be on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays, according to a release on Friday.
“With over 250 Swiss companies operating in India, hundreds of Indian companies in Switzerland, and a growing Indian diaspora of nearly 18,000, these flights will cater to a strong demand for business and leisure travel in both directions,” Air India CEO and MD Campbell Wilson said. (PTI)
