Air India is set to connect Delhi with Phuket, Thailand’s popular island destination, with a non-stop service from 15th December 2023. The service will meet the demand for convenient air links between the two cities for tourism and trade, while further bolstering the airline’s expansion plans in the Far East and South East Asia.
Operated with an A320neo aircraft offering 162 seats (150 in Economy and 12 in Business Class), AI 378 will depart from Delhi at 0110 hrs to arrive in Phuket the same day at 0710 hrs. The return flight AI 379 will take off from Phuket at 0810 hrs and land in Delhi at 1050 hrs (All Local Time).
Commencing with a four-flights-a-week schedule (Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Sundays), the service will be enhanced to a daily operation from January 2024.
“Phuket is a popular global destination and holds a significant base for business and tourism. We are delighted to welcome Phuket into our network and will continue to expand our connectivity and enhance frequency in domestic and international sectors providing more flexibility of choice to our customers and contributing to the growth in the aviation sector,” said Nipun Aggarwal, Chief Commercial & Transformation Officer, Air India.
