NEW DELHI: Amid a 21-day lockdown imposed in the country to combat the coronavirus pandemic, Air India has got approval from Indian and Chinese authorities for operating cargo flights to Shanghai and Hong Kong to get medical supplies, its Chairman and Managing Director Rajiv Bansal said on Thursday.
“We have applied to the Chinese authorities to commence freighter operations to two destinations — Shanghai and Hong Kong — from Delhi. There have been a few regulatory challenges from the Chinese side,” said Bansal.
