Air India’s Direct Flights to Delhi from Vienna Airport Resume

The offering of long-haul flights in Vienna continues to increase. Since Saturday evening, 18 February 2023, Air India is back at Vienna Airport once again, offering direct flights linking Delhi and Vienna.
In this way, India’s national airline is underlining the importance of Vienna within its route network and is resuming a vital flight connection to India’s economic centre. The flights suspended as a consequence due to the coronavirus pandemic in early 2020 and will now once again be operated three times a week deploying a Boeing Dreamliner 787-8. The flight connection was officially inaugurated today (19/02/2023) within the context of a photo session by His Excellency, Mr Jaideep Mazumdar, Ambassador of India to Austria, Sachin Verma, Airport Manager-FRA of Air India and Nikolaus Gretzmacher, Senior Vice President Operations at Vienna Airport.

“Vienna is once again directly connected to Delhi. The resumption of direct flights operated from Vienna to India’s capital city region has now been ensured by Air India, which comprises a gratifying success. India ranks among the world’s largest economies and Delhi is the country’s most important business centre. From a tourism perspective, the metropolis is also an attractive destination. In turn, Vienna is an important market for Indian tourism. We are pleased with the restoration of the flight connection and look forward to continuing our good partnership with Air India,” explains Julian Jäger, Joint CEO and COO of Vienna Airport.
