Air India adds an offering for your Switzerland trip

Air India on Friday announced commencement of a non-stop service between Delhi and Zurich starting June 16, 2024, marking the airline’s entry in Switzerland.

The induction of new routes will take the total number of cities served by Air India in mainland Europe to seven.

Using its two-class configured Boeing 787 Dreamliner aircraft, Air India will operate on the new European route on four days every week – Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Sundays.

Air India’s new service will provide travellers in Switzerland, as well as those in southern Germany and western Austria with a non-stop option to travel to Delhi, and onward to destinations across Air India’s growing route network, particularly in the Indian Subcontinent, Southeast Asia, and Australia.

Flight Schedule
Air India flight AI151 will depart Delhi at 1405hrs (2pm), arriving in Zurich at 1915hrs (7:15 pm). AI152 will depart Zurich at 2050hrs (8:50 pm), arriving in Delhi at 0805hrs (8:05 am) the next day.

“The schedule enables travellers to conveniently connect to Air India’s flights from Delhi to popular destinations, such as Bangkok, Colombo, Dhaka, Ho Chi Minh City, Kathmandu, Melbourne, Phuket, Singapore, and Sydney, amongst others,” the company said.Campbell Wilson, Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director, Air India, said, “This new route strengthens the ties between India and Switzerland, which are not only major trading partners, but also boast a vibrant exchange of people. With over 250 Swiss companies operating in India, hundreds of Indian companies in Switzerland, and a growing Indian diaspora of nearly 18,000, these flights will cater to a strong demand for business and leisure travel in both directions.”“Switzerland, a consistently top-ranking European destination for Indian tourists, will now be even more accessible, with these flights further solidifying the economic and cultural bridges between the two nations,” Wilson added.

The airline said that bookings for flights to Zurich “are being progressively opened across channels, including Air India’s website, mobile app, via travel agents as well as online travel agents.”
