Air India to start Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner service between Bengaluru & London Gatwick in August

To meet the ever-expanding demand for passenger travel between India and the UK, Air India will soon add another route between Bengaluru in South India and London Gatwick Airport. The flight will be one of many that the carrier currently operates to Gatwick on top of its busy Heathrow schedule out of India. Air India will start flying between Bengaluru (BLR) and London Gatwick (LGW) from August 18. The airline will operate five weekly services between the two destinations using its Boeing 787 Dreamliner aircraft on the route, featuring 18 lie-flat seats in business class and 238 seats in economy. Campbell Wilson, CEO & Managing Director, Air India, commented, “We are delighted to offer our guests convenient, nonstop flights between Bengaluru and London Gatwick. This new route caters to the growing demand for travel between these two important business and leisure destinations, and strengthens our commitment to expanding our global network.”<br/>
