Air India non-stop flights to San Francisco starts today, 90% seats booked

Air India has started first-ever non-stop flight from New Delhi to San Francisco on Wednesday. Air India officials said that the response so far has been encouraging and all SFO flights are 90 per cent booked for December.

“This new service is significant- the first nonstop flight from the West Coast of the US to India, saving hours off the journey time,” Charles Schuler, Director of Communications SFO said.

Air India plans to launch services with three flights per week — on Sundays, Wednesdays, and Fridays.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi during his September visit to the Silicon Valley had made an announcement in this regard.

SFO offers non-stop flights to more than 39 international destinations on 33 international carriers. The Bay Area’s largest airport connects non-stop with 77 cities in the US on 13 domestic airlines.
