Vistara operates its first long-haul flight from Delhi to London

Vistara operated its first long-haul flight from Delhi to London on Friday using its newly inducted Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner aircraft, the airline said here.

The full-service carrier is scheduled to operate special thrice-weekly flights from August 28 to October 24 between the two cities, it said in a statement.

These special flights are being operated under a bilateral ‘air bubble’ pact signed between India and the UK amid the coronavirus-related travel restrictions.
