Air India operating daily flights between Delhi, Prayagraj amid rising demand for Maha Kumbh festival

Tata Group-owned aircraft carrier Air India has said it is operating daily flights between Delhi and Prayagraj to meet the spiked demands during the ongoing Maha Kumbh.

"To meet the high travel demand, Air India will operate the route from 25 January to 28 February 2025," Air India said in a statement.

With these flights, Air India said it is bringing the only full-service flying option between the two cities for customers, offering them the choice of premium cabins in addition to Economy Class.

"With convenient daytime departures in both directions, the flights enable seamless connections via Delhi to customers travelling to/from various parts of India as well as North America, Europe, Australia, and several countries in Southeast Asia," the company said.

The Maha Kumbh festival began in Prayagraj on Monday.
