Air India’s ‘flights to nowhere’ plans to take travellers for a ‘scenic ride’
Air India is planning to start a new initiative for those who want to travel but have nowhere to go. Under ‘flights to nowhere’ programme, Air India will take the travellers for a picturesque journey in the sky. Following the path of Australia’s Qantas Airways, the budget airlines will take-off and drop the flyers at the same airport.
These ‘scenic joy flights’ will be low-flying expeditions that give passengers an aerial tour of famous spots in India, an Air India official told the Hindustan Times. “Yes, we are exploring the possibility of starting a scenic flight service. Other details are to be decided,” an Air India spokesperson said.
Australia’s Qantas recently announced seven-hour-long flights during which the passenger will be able to spot attractions such as the Great Barrier Reef and the Sydney Harbour. Royal Brunei also operates similar flights for passengers.
