Vistara has been granted a Foreign Air Carrier Permit by the US DoT to operate scheduled and charter passenger and cargo services between India and the US. The order, issued on August 24, becomes effective on the 61st day after its submission for a presidential review or the date of receipt of approval from the US President's office, whichever happens earlier. Tata SIA Airlines Limited – a 51/49 joint venture between India’s Tata Sons and the Singapore Airlines Group – on June 2 had received tentative approval from the DOT to its application for an exemption and an FACP. This followed its application on April 28 to launch commercial services to the US on September 1, 2021, using B787-9s.<br/>
