Air India is set to resume part of its international flight schedule, which was previously reduced following a tragic crash involving one of its Boeing 787 aircraft. The accident led to the death of all but one passenger on board and several individuals on the ground. In response, Air India paused its international operations to inspect its fleet of Boeing 787 Dreamliner jets.
The airline announced it would restore some routes starting next month. By August 1, 2025, Air India plans to reintroduce several flights affected by what it calls a "safety pause." This gradual resumption will continue through September, with the full schedule expected to be restored by October 1, 2025.
Air India's international network will eventually consist of 575 weekly flights across 63 routes connecting India with global destinations. However, some services planned between August and September will be removed from the schedule as part of a phased restoration process.
