New Delhi: Civil Aviation Secretary Rajiv Bansal said on Wednesday said that due to decease in daily positive cases of Covid-19, International passenger flight services are expected to be normalised very soon.

Scheduled international passenger flights to and from India remain suspended since March 2020 amid the coronavirus pandemic. The suspension has been extended till November 30.

Currently, India has air bubble arrangements with more than 25 countries for operating international flights.

Last week, Civil Aviation Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia said, “I am all for regaining our space in the civil aviation arena in the world and making a hub in India and for more wide-body aircraft. We will get there but bear with me and trust me, I am on your side. We will work together but in a safe environment.”
