Air India
We the members of the Indian community in Austria, alongside our fellow Austrian citizens, local businesses, and supporters are calling upon Air India and relevant aviation authorities to reinstate direct non-stop flights between Vienna International Airport (VIE) and Indira Gandhi International Airport in Delhi (DEL).
Begründung
Why This Matters
The vibrant Indian diaspora living across Austria relies on efficient travel options to visit family, celebrate cultural traditions, and maintain strong ties to India. Direct flights eliminate long layovers, significantly reducing travel stress and fatigue for families, elderly individuals, and students.
Austria and India share rapidly growing trade, industrial, and technology partnerships that benefit both nations. Restricting travel to indirect flights creates unnecessary friction and delays for business owners, investors, and professionals. Re-establishing direct air links will enhance commerce, facilitate corporate collaboration, and stimulate bilateral investment between Central Europe and India.
Furthermore, Vienna is one of Europe's top destinations for culture, diplomacy, and leisure travel, while India offers rich heritage and tourism for Austrian visitors. A direct route provides a seamless connection that directly boosts the tourism and hospitality sectors in both countries.
As a key Central European transit hub, Vienna International Airport serves not only Austria but also travelers from neighboring countries. Strong passenger volume year-round makes this route a practical, win-win opportunity for Air India.
Please new aircraft. Not old
