Air India to Start Four New Routes from Gatwick this Summer

Beginning on 26th March, Air India will start operating flights from the airport to Goa, Ahmedabad, Amritsar, and Kochi (Cochin).

The Indian flag carrier will operate 12 weekly flights on Boeing 787-8 aircraft with 256 seats in each of the business and economy classes between Gatwick and the four Indian cities.

Three flights per week will be available to each location.

Stewart Wingate, the chief executive of Gatwick, said: “The arrival of Air India and its four routes to London Gatwick is fantastic news for the airport and passengers across London and the south-east.

“India not only offers wonderful cities and beach destinations to explore but provides a wealth of opportunities for businesses and wider connectivity.

“These connections are also hugely important to our local and regional communities, with people looking to visit family and friends across India.”
