Air India is expanding its services to Phuket, Thailand, starting June 1, 2024.

With increasing popularity, the airline will now operate a second daily flight (except Wednesdays) to the tropical destination.

This new addition complements the existing daily flights between Delhi and Phuket.

According to the official Press Release, the new flight schedule has been strategically planned to accommodate travelers’ needs, offering a convenient late morning departure from Delhi. This timing is especially beneficial for connecting guests arriving from Europe, making their journey to the picturesque beach spot hassle-free.

Air India’s commitment to meeting demand is evident from its service growth. Since its initial launch in December 2023 with four weekly flights, Air India has steadily increased its frequency.

By January 2024, it had transitioned to a daily service, and now, with the addition of the second daily flight, it will nearly double its flight operations to Phuket.

This expansion means Air India will now operate a total of 34 weekly flights to Thailand from Delhi and Mumbai combined. Travelers can easily book seats on these additional flights through various channels, including the Air India website, mobile app, and travel agents.

Here’s a quick look at the flight schedule:
