Airlines add flights out of India to bring citizens home

Bloomberg

International and domestic airlines are adding flights out of India to bring home residents and citizens as the nation’s coronavirus outbreak goes from bad to worse.
Air India Ltd plans to increase its weekly frequency of flights to the US to 32 starting May 11, up from the current 29. That compares with about 33 weekly flights before Covid. Korean Air Lines Co and Asiana Airlines Inc meanwhile are planning to charter flights from India to help South Koreans there wanting to return. Both carriers, which had previously halted all scheduled services to the South Asian nation because of the pandemic, are working with regulators to finalise the flights’ details.
