Beijing [China], April 22 (ANI): Air China officially resumed direct flight operations between Beijing and Delhi on April 21, restoring a key aerial link between the two capitals. The resumption was announced by Yu Jing, Spokesperson for the Chinese Embassy in India, who described it as a “strong and confident start” for the route.
Both legs of the inaugural resumed service were operated using the Airbus A332 (A330-200). The arriving and departing flights landed ahead of schedule, underscoring the operational efficiency of the relaunch.
The restored service aims to simplify travel for business passengers, tourists and students by reducing reliance on lengthy layovers through third-country hubs. Beyond commercial benefits, the move carries symbolic diplomatic weight and is expected to stabilise logistics and strengthen people-to-people ties between China and India.
In a post on X, Yu Jing wrote: “On April 21, Air China officially resumed direct flights between Beijing & Delhi. Both flights operated on an Airbus A332, and both arrived ahead of schedule — a strong and confident start to the resumed route. The skies are connected once again — here’s to easier journeys and closer ties between our two peoples!”
With the corridor reopened, travellers can expect shorter, more direct connections and a potential boost to economic exchange and the aviation sectors of both countries as regular services continue. (ANI)
