(TAN) : Indian airline Vistara is increasing its flights in the Delhi-London Heathrow sector this winter. Vistara is operating these flights as part of the bilateral “transport bubble” between India and the UK.
The airline currently operates four flights every week. From November 21, this will be increased to five flights weekly, further ramping up to daily flights from December 1.
The timing of the flights have also been changed for customers’ convenience. Effective October 25, the westbound flight UK017 departing Delhi at 1345 hours will reach London at 1745 hours the same day. The return flight, UK018, will depart London at 2050 hours and arrive in Delhi at 1025 hours the following day.

“The increase in frequency demonstrates our success on the Delhi-London route…It also brings to our customers more choice and flexibility with their travel plans in these unusual times, and the retiming of flights further enables convenient connections to and from several cities across India”, said Vinod Kannan, the airline’s chief commercial officer.
Vistara’s Delhi-London route will continue to be serviced by its new Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner aircraft, featuring three cabin classes, onboard WiFi, and specially curated meals.
