Air India Express has announced the addition of 24 additional flights every week between India and the UAE

During the impending summer vacation season, when travel between the UAE and India soars, passengers will have an increased number of flight options. In order to better serve Indian tourists and expatriates, Air India Express has stated that it will increase the number of flights it operates between India and the United Arab Emirates (Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and Ras Al Khaimah) by 24 per week throughout the summer.

The Indian airline will increase the number of weekly flights from eighty-four to eighty-two on the Dubai route. With the addition of 14 flights, there will be 43 weekly flights on the route to Abu Dhabi. The airline controlled by the Tata Group plans to augment the number of flights on the Ras Al Khaimah route by six, bringing the weekly total to eight.

Many UAE schools will be closed for summer vacation from June to August, which will force expatriate families to fly overseas to spend time with their loved ones. In a similar vein, the UAE receives a significant influx of Indian tourists throughout the summer. In order to secure the cheapest prices, travel agencies recommend UAE residents and frequent travellers to purchase their tickets at least three months in advance.
