Air India starts Oz routes from Delhi to Sydney, Melbourne

Air India began its assault on the India to Australia market (and potentially the lucrative ‘kangaroo route’ from Europe too), when it began the only direct flights between the two countries, starting Delhi to Sydney  and Melbourne on 29 August. 

The 787-operated service touched down at Sydney first, before continuing on to Melbourne, and then returning from the Victoria state capital to Delhi — it will fly this routing from the Indian capital four times weekly. In addition, the Star Alliance carrier will fly Delhi-Melbourne-Sydney-Delhi thrice-weekly (Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays).
