Air India’s regional subsidiary Alliance Air announces more services to tier-II cities

Loss-making Air India’s regional subsidiary Alliance Air on Wednesday announced expansion of its services to enhance connectivity to more tier-II cities from metros, starting Friday. The airline is expanding operations at a time when major domestic carriers are struggling to operate even half of their allowed capacity amid demand slump due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Continuing its efforts to bolster regional connectivity, the airline is giving multiple flight options to enhance connectivity between metros and tier-II cities, starting July 24, Alliance Air said in a release. With this, passengers will have connectivity options to Jharsuguda from Kolkata, Bhubaneswar and Raipur with a daily flight, the airline said.
