India-Germany flights under air bubble resume
Following a fallout with Germany over the number of flights being operated between India and the European country that led to the air-bubble between the two jurisdictions being suspended, flight services have recommenced under the bilateral arrangement with German flag-carrier Lufthansa and Air India operating 10 and seven flights per week, respectively.
The German carrier had on September 29 announced suspension of all its “planned flights” between India and Germany till October 20, citing “unexpected rejection” of its flight schedule by the Indian authorities.
“Flights between India & Germany recommence under air bubble arrangement. Lufthansa will operate from Delhi (4 days), Mumbai (3 days) & Bengaluru (3 days). @airindiain will operate 5 weekly flights from Delhi & 2 every week from Bengaluru to Frankfurt,” Civil Aviation Minister Hardeep Singh Puri said in a tweet.
