August 18, 2020: Vistara, the joint venture of Tata group and Singapore Airlines, will operate special, non-stop flights between Delhi and London Heathrow from August 28 to September 30, 2020, marking its foray in long-haul international operations.
The flights have been introduced as part of the bilateral ‘transport bubble’ formed between India and the UK. During the period, Vistara will fly thrice a week between the two cities - on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. The one way fares from Delhi to London start from Rs 29,912 in Economy Class, Rs 44,449 in Premuim Economy, and Rs 77,373 in Business Class.
The airline will deploy its brand-new Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner aircraft on the route to provide non-stop flying experience in both directions. The airline also received its second Dreamliner aircraft recently, strengthening its fleet to operate more such long-haul flights and expand its international operations. Vistara is also seeking necessary regulatory approvals to soon operate similar special flights to Paris, France and Frankfurt, Germany.
Leslie Thng, chief executive officer, Vistara, said, “As the world starts opening up in a phased manner following an extended global lockdown, these special flights give us the privilege of facilitating travel between the two countries. We are confident that travellers will appreciate having the choice of flying India’s only five-star airline to and from London, which also upholds the highest standards of safety and hygiene.”
“The arrival of our second Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner further strengthens our fleet and underlines our commitment to expanding globally. There is an inherent need for an Indian carrier with modern fleet, world-class cabin products and onboard service to fly non-stop on long-haul routes. Our Dreamliner aircraft help us distinguish our offering and give us a competitive edge in the market”, he added.
