AI resumes US flights after clearance over 5G roll-out
Air India on Thursday resumed its flights on the Boeing B777 aircraft to the United States following approval from the manufacturer that the jet was safe to fly despite the expansion of 5G mobile communication services in American cities.
The development came two days after the national carrier announced cancellation of some of its most popular direct flights amid concerns that the new 5G services could potentially interfere with aircraft navigation systems.
“The matter regarding B777 flying into the US has been sorted and Boeing has allowed Air India to operate to the US on B777,” an Air India spokesperson said.
