The road of redemption for one of the major American Airlines i.e. Delta Airlines has been a motivational one. After facing a lot of ups and downs, the airline has finally strengthened its operations and now is going to make the biggest comeback in 2019. With the commencement of the year 2019, Delta Airlines flights to India are going to begin, initially from Mumbai. It has been reported that airlines will provide nonstop flight services from the United States.
With its comeback, Delta Airlines is going to give a big competition to its biggest competitors, United Airlines and Northwest Airlines. Probably Delta Airlines will initiate nonstop flights from the USA to Mumbai at first. Gradually, this approach will get broadened. The airline has Cincinnati, Boston, and Raleigh as the prominent cities for flights within the USA.
Demolition of Delta Airlines Flights to India
A few years ago, India stopped the operations of Delta Airlines because of highly competitive fares from subsidized Middle East’s Airlines like Qatar Airways, Etihad Airways, and more. This year Delta Airlines’ CEO declared the comeback of airlines in India after the open skies agreement between the United Arab Emirates, US, and Qatar government. This agreement has resolved the issues regarding subsidies for Middle East Airlines. Therefore, Delta Airlines is on its way to fly Indian skies again.
After facing high competition from Gulf airlines, in 2009, the Delta airlines services from Atlanta to Mumbai got demolished. Until 2015, Delta continues its flight from Amsterdam to Mumbai, India. Unfortunately, due to intense competition, the airlines stopped its services in India, in 2015.
A Grand Comeback
Now, after 4 years of hiatus, The Delta airlines have announced its return to India. All this while, United Airlines has been the only US carrier with its daily flight services to Delhi and Mumbai from Newark, that too without any competition.
In the Asia Pacific region, Mumbai is undoubtedly the primary business destination. Having commenced the flights from the US to Mumbai is far an excellent step, in terms of business. Delta will give stiff competition to Air India and United Airlines with completely surprising business class airfares.
For the frequent flyers, the airlines will give the best services including the nonstop flights to Dubai from Newark. Hence, beating Emirates Airlines. However, a lot of things that still need confirmation. Those include reach of Delta Airlines to different destinations in India other than Mumbai and its first US gateway to India. You will know everything by the end of this year, i.e. 2018.
This is interesting to note that how Delta Airlines will take carrier peers’ business to another level. With this sudden rush in the travel market, it has been said that rival airlines are strengthening its nonstop flight services.
The return of Delta Airlines is surely going to emerge as the ultimate comeback. Delta Airlines flights to India will benefit the people in every way, whether in terms of money or time.
