We are thrilled to announce a major milestone for Air India and for travelers between Japan and India! Starting June 15, 2025, Air India is launching daily direct flights from Tokyo’s Haneda Airport to Delhi. This exciting development also marks a special occasion – 70 years of Air India’s flight operations in Japan.
Celebrating 70 Years of Flying High
For seven decades, Air India has played a key role in connecting the people, cultures, and businesses of Japan and India. The launch of this new daily flight is not just an expansion of our network—it’s a celebration of our strong and growing relationship with Japan.
Strategic Discussions in Tokyo and Osaka
Ahead of the launch, our leadership team—Sumeet Gosain and Sid Sharma—led a series of engaging meetings in Tokyo and Osaka. They met with key travel partners, trade organizations, and corporate representatives to discuss the upcoming launch and explore ways to further strengthen Air India’s presence in the Japanese market.
These discussions were not just ceremonial—they were full of valuable insights. From tourism trends to corporate travel needs, the feedback and support from our Japanese partners were incredibly encouraging.
A Step Towards Better Connectivity
The new Haneda–Delhi daily flight is a big step towards better connectivity and more convenience for travelers. Haneda Airport is closer to central Tokyo than Narita, making it easier and quicker for passengers to travel to and from India.
Whether you’re a business traveler, a student, a tourist, or someone visiting family, this new route saves time and adds flexibility to your journey.
