Ready to fly Indians when Saudi Arabia eases restrictions, says govt
The Civil Aviation Ministry said that the government is ready to fly passengers to countries like Saudi Arabia whenever they remove restrictions on the entry of Indian nationals.
It said India has been operating international flights under Vande Bharat Mission since May 6 and now has air bubble arrangements with 22 countries.
“Some countries, including Saudi Arabia, have not removed restrictions on the entry of Indian nationals. We are ready to fly passengers to these countries when the restrictions are eased,” the ministry said on Twitter.
Under the bilateral air bubble pacts, the airlines of both countries can operate international flights with certain restrictions.
