Air India, Air India Express release March 15 West Asia flight schedule: Check full list

As the Gulf crisis rages on, hurting airspaces across the region, Air India and its budget arm, Air India Express, on Saturday announced its limited flight schedule to West Asia for Sunday (March 15).

The two carriers will operate a combined total of 72 scheduled and non-scheduled services to and from West Asia on March 15, the airline said in a statement.

The 72 scheduled services include flights to and from Jeddah and Muscat—Air India Express' 12 flights to and from Muscat, and eight flights (from both carriers) to and from Jeddah.

Of those eight flights, Air India will operate one round-trip service each from Delhi and Mumbai, while Air India Express will operate one flight each from Bengaluru and Kozhikode.

Air India Express' set of 12 flights to and from Muscat includes services from Delhi, Kochi, Kozhikode, Mangaluru, Mumbai, and Thiruvananthapuram.

The 52 non-scheduled flights will be operated to and from the UAE and Saudi Arabia "subject to availability of slots" and developing airspace conditions based on the war.

"All Air India flights to and from North America, Europe, Australia and other regions continue to operate per schedule," the airline reaffirmed.

It added that guests scheduled to travel on any of the routes where Air India's scheduled services remain temporarily suspended can either rebook to a future date (at no additional charge), or opt for a full refund.
