Air India has launched a new direct service from New Delhi to Manila, marking the first non-stop flight between the two countries.
The new route is operated by the airline’s Airbus A321LR aircraft, featuring a three-class cabin configuration.
Air India said it is “one of the few” airlines in Southeast Asia to offer fully flat beds in business class in the single-aisle A321 aircraft.
In addition to providing non-stop connectivity to an increasing number of travellers between India and the Philippines, the new flights also open new connections for Air India passengers to Europe and North America via New Delhi.
With the launch of services to Manila, Air India now flies to eight destinations across seven countries in the Southeast Asia region.
