March 27 reopening: Airlines start adding international routes; US carriers in wait & watch mode due to Ukraine crisis

NEW DELHI: The world could again be an oyster, though a virus-affected one, for desi globetrotters as India allows resumption of scheduled international services from Sunday (March 27).
Foreign airlines have begun resuming/adding flights and started offering connections from their hubs like pre-Covid times and Indian carriers are also spreading their wings.
To be sure, travellers will have to follow country-specific rules which are being increasingly relaxed by the day as Covid eases.
Lufthansa (LH) Group currently has 22 weekly flights on Swiss and LH between Frankfurt, Munich and Zurich, and Delhi, Mumbai and Bengaluru. It will raise the number of weekly flights to 28 next month; 33 in May when Chennai will be back on the network; 39 in June and 42 by October, said an official.
