Fourth Daily Flight Between Capitals
Air India has announced a fourth daily flight between Delhi and London’s Heathrow Airport. Scheduled to go live on October 26, 2025, it will increase the carrier’s weekly flight count to 28 between the capitals. The fourth service will offer an additional 1,196 weekly seats per sector.
Largest Carrier Between India and the UK
With the additional service confirmed, Air India further solidifies its position as the largest carrier between India and the UK. With 61 weekly flights connecting five Indian cities, namely Bengaluru, Delhi, Mumbai, Ahmedabad, and Amritsar, with London (Heathrow), London (Gatwick), and Birmingham, Air India offers over 18,000 seats per week per sector. That equates to about 1.7 million seats per annum between the two nations.
