Air India receives first upgraded Boeing 787-8 in Delhi from California as $400 million refurbishment plan progresses
Air India’s first refurbished wide-body Boeing 787-8 aircraft arrived at Delhi Airport on Monday, marking a major milestone more than three years after the Tata Group-owned carrier unveiled a $400 million plan to overhaul its older twin-aisle fleet.
The aircraft, registered as VT-ANT, completed a non-stop ferry flight from San Bernardino in the United States, travelling across the Pacific before landing at Indira Gandhi International Airport in Delhi at 10 pm, the airline said.
