New Delhi: Air India will operate 3 flights between India-Ukraine (Boryspil International Airport) on February 22, 24 and 26 to help Indian citizens fly out of the former Soviet state amid smearing tension with its neighbour Russia and fears of a likely invasion.
Full-service carrier Air India took to its official Twitter handle on Friday to make this announcement. “Booking open through Air India Booking offices, Website, Call Centre and Authorised Travel Agents (sic),” it added.

Any number of flights as well as Charter flights can operate. Indian airlines have been informed to mount the flights due to an increase in demand.
