New Delhi: Air India on Thursday gave a detailed list of its flights that will be affected due to the reduction in services operated by Boeing 787 and 777 aircraft.

These reductions will be effective from June 21 and last until at least July 15, according to an Air India statement.

The reduction in flights has taken place after the decision to voluntarily undertake enhanced pre-flight safety checks, as well as accommodate additional flight durations arising from airspace closures in the Middle East. The objective is to restore schedule stability and minimise last-minute inconvenience to passengers, the airline said.
