This enhancement now encompasses New York JFK Airport, Newark Liberty Airport (New Jersey), and San Francisco, marking a significant upgrade for all North American cities served by Air India from Mumbai. Passengers on these routes will enjoy the comfort of modern-generation seats and state-of-the-art inflight entertainment systems in all classes.
Moreover, Air India announced that one of its two daily flights between Mumbai and London Heathrow (AI130/AI131) will use the new Boeing 777 aircraft. This introduction brings modern-generation interiors to this route and introduces First Class cabins for an enhanced travel experience.
The B777-200LR aircraft serving San Francisco and New York-JFK offers 28 Business Class, 48 Premium Economy, and 212 Economy Class seats. On the other hand, the B777-300ER aircraft serving Newark Liberty and London Heathrow provides 8 First Class, 40 Business Class, and 280 Economy Class seats.
