Air India has announced to launch non-stop flights from Amritsar to Birmingham early next year.
Rajya Sabha MP Shwait Malik said Air India would run two flights
per week.
The national carrier currently operates a flight from Amritsar
to Birmingham via New Delhi.
Malik said, “The move will give a fillip to tourism and trade. It
would also benefit local passengers as earlier they had to wait for at
least two hours during the halt in Delhi.”
