India extends ban on international flights till end of May

Amid an aggressive sweep of the second coronavirus wave, the Director General of Civil Aviation on Friday further extended the suspension of scheduled international flights till May 31.

The earlier deadline for flights suspension was to end today. “However, international scheduled flights may be allowed on selected routes by the competent authority on a case to case basis,” the DGCA said in a circular.

Vande Bharat Mission and scheduled flights under the travel bubbles India so far created will continue. Scheduled international flights were suspended on March 23, 2020.
