India’s full-service carrier, Vistara, recently announced new non-stop flights between the Frankfurt-New Delhi circuit. Slated to start on February 19, the Tata Group and Singapore Airlines’ joint venture flights will fly twice a week on Thursdays and Saturdays. With this new addition, Frankfurt becomes the airline’s second European destination after London.
Served by the full-service carrier’s brand-new Boeing 7879 Dreamliner aircraft, travellers will be able to make bookings via Vistara’s website, mobile app, and through travel agents. With this, passengers will also be able to embark on an onward journey to the rest of the country and European Union, subject to existing regulations on transit traffic.

This new route is seen as a step towards strengthening ties between the nations, and further facilitating movement between the travel bubble. Speaking about this, Leslie Thng, Chief Executive Officer of Vistara says, “India and Germany enjoy very strong ties, the impressions of which are visible in many areas—including business, science and technology—that continue to fuel demand for travel between the two countries. Not only this, Germany is also home to hundreds of thousands of Indians and people of Indian origin. Flyers from both, India and Germany, will now have the choice of flying India’s best airline on this route that is trusted by millions of people for its world-class products, service and on-point hygiene and safety protocols.”
