Today (July 16th), Civil Aviation Minister conducted a press briefing, to share and discuss news and development about international flights.
The main thing which came out from this press briefing was that international flights will not start from Mid-August, we reported by some media publications.
However, as part of the air bubble, international flights from India to US, France and Germany starts from July 17th.
Here are 3 things you should know:
International Flights Are Not Starting From August
Normal international flights stand suspended, as per the earlier Govt notifications. The term ‘Normal’ here conveys pre-Covid era, wherein any one with passport and visa could have booked a flight to any country, and reach there.
That is not happening anytime soon, not till August 1st, atleast.
Air-Bubble Based Travel Only Way Forward
The Minister has made it absolutely clear that the only air-travel internationally possible as of now is air-bubble based.
Air bubble is a diplomatic and strategical arrangement between two nations, say India and US, India and UK and so on.
And international flights will be limited to these air bubbles as of now, till further notice.
