Air India’s flight from the United Kingdom arrived in Delhi, with 246 passengers on board, as a result of fears about the mutated fast-spread strain of coronavirus that appeared in Britain.
Flights from the United Kingdom resumed today following the Government’s suspension of services between India and the United Kingdom on 23 December on the new and more infectious strain of the virus.
Flights from India to the United Kingdom resumed on Wednesday, when the number of people screened positive for the new UK version increased to 73.
According to the government, 30 flights will fly per week-15 flights each by Indian and United Kingdom carriers. This will be until 23 January, Civil Aviation Minister Hardeep Puri said.
Passengers have been instructed to maintain a distance of at least 10 hours between their arrival from the United Kingdom and the connecting flight to their cities.
