A-I would now have 16 flights a week to and from Singapore with non-stop services from Mumbai, Delhi, Chennai and Hyderabad with five services from Mumbai every week, it said.
The frequency to Kuala Lumpur would be increased to 13 flights a week including seven from Chennai, three non-stop flights each from Mumbai and Delhi, it said.
A-I would also continue to operate 18 code share flights per week with Malaysia Airlines including 13 on the Mumbai/Bangalore/Hyderabad-Kuala Lumpur sector and five on the Kuala Lumpur-Los Angeles sector, it said.
The airline would double its services from the existing five to 12 to Hong Kong including five services from Mumbai to Hong Kong via Bangkok and also increase its services to Bangkok to 11 flights from six currently, it added.
