SHANGHAI: Air travel between China and India will be made easier with a new direct flight between China's economic hub Shanghai and India's capital Delhi.
The direct flight, operated by Air India, the national carrier of the South Asian country, was launched over the weekend to meet increasing demand from business travelers and tourists from the two countries.
Passengers will be able to fly the route four times a week on Tuesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays and Sundays. The direct flight will cut flying time because previously the plane stopped in Bangkok.
