Bade miya, chhote miyan! Disruptions at its home base caused this pretty WhaleJet to cool its heels on the tarmac at BOM. Pretty rare to spot Emirates Airbus A380 at Mumbai airport in daylight otherwise.

Air France 🇫🇷 plans to add more flights to Bangkok, Singapore, Bengaluru, Tokyo and Osaka this Summer, owing to the increased demand. Larger aircraft to be deployed to Delhi and Mumbai. corporate.airfrance.com/en/news/air-fr…

Quite likely, IMO. Adani has already said that the airport will hit 20MPA in a matter of months because all slots have been booked!

The 2nd A350-1000 for Air India is in production at Toulouse.

🔴 SWISS is increasing its flight offering between Switzerland and India. From 1 April to 31 May 2026, in addition to its regular service from Zurich to Delhi, SWISS will operate a second daily connection using an Airbus A330. #Airways #News

Spotted this ‘almost 25 yo’ freighter, B-221J, flying for YTO Express at BOM earlier today. The B757 spent most of its life in the US, flying for American Airlines as N186AN We wont see this frame in the future, as Adani will move all dedicated freighter operations to NMI soon.

@gurupratap @Deaphen @DXB @DelhiAirport @flightradar24 Dire Straits, sir?

@Deaphen @DXB @DelhiAirport @flightradar24 Strait-forward routing sir

A common route from @DXB to @DelhiAirport. This is our route (from @flightradar24 ) taken on January 29th. I recall looking down at the strait.

Air India's VT-ALL wasn't the only Long-Parked 777 that Moved Today, 1 of Jet Airways' Grounded 777-300ERs at Mumbai was Moved to Taxiway E1 🇮🇳 3 of 9W's 777-300ERs were Recently Sold to Challenge Group of Malta. 📸 @RealB747fan

Some lovelies I spotted at BOM yesterday. Middle-age and work-life related stresses seem to vanish when my childhood hobby comes to the fore! Note to self: book more daytime flights 😁

Some really nice breakfast on board RJ193 this morning. First time flying @RoyalJordanian I was dreading a 5 hr+ flight on a narrowbody, but it turned out okay. Clean, new (7 mo) aircraft & Decent IFE too!! A small snack towards the end of the 5:30hr flight would have been nice.

@khabri_lal High density aircraft are besht for RDG CAT-II routes!

Akasa Air inducts tenth high density MAX, launches flights to Dibrugarh networkthoughts.com/2026/02/02/aka…

Probably my last ever DOH-BOM AI970, as this flight is to be terminated soon to make way for IX’s BLR-DOH. This is also likely to be my last flight on a PP-series aircraft before the @airindia A321ceos go in for refurbishment.

@ShivamVahia You cannot convince non-AvGeeks. You can only extract engagement out of them. ;)

How do I convince my non-AvGeek kanjus marwadi friend that a BOM-AMD-DEL at ₹8.5K is a much better value added deal than a direct BOM-DEL at ₹9K?! Dude's getting an extra meal + take off / landing + security check all for ₹500 extra. He brushed me off saying it is better he pays to get me admitted in a mental hospital. You tell me, who is the retard here? 🤨

Brilliant thread by @AviationAll_, documenting @airindia's Airbus A319 fleet usage. The 'babybuses' were "Wildcards", finding and filling different niches in AI's network over the past seasons! These days, the 319s supplement the A320neos with additional capacity from BOM/ DEL.

@fingle49954 @airindia @HIAQatar Yep. @HIAQatar is certainly a future-ready airport!

@flyingTrini @airindia @HIAQatar Max 10 markings already?!?

Throwback to December 2022. Back when @airindia flew a Boeing787 on DOH-BOM! AI later shifted to 14PW on narrow-body aircraft and will soon reduce it to 7PW, to allow IX to operate BLR-DOH! Here is VT-ANP with the iconic DOH tower in the back.

@TIAG747 @airindia @HIAQatar Yes, FIFA in Qatar was in Nov/Dec 2022

@flyingTrini @airindia @HIAQatar If I remember it correctly, it was for the FIFA World Cup right?

@TIAG747 Looks like India and Germany are "exchanging sweets" on BOM-FRA! 🤣

Lufthansa 🇩🇪 will deploy D-ABPU, its 787, with the 100th anniversary "XXL Crane" livery, to Mumbai 🇮🇳 on 20th January. This will be the first scheduled flight for the aircraft

Air India to deploy the "new" 787-9 to Frankfurt from Mumbai Here is why I had the placeholder cryptic post and the logic behind this deployment networkthoughts.com/2026/01/16/air…

Air India will deploy the new Dreamliner 787-9 on the Mumbai - Frankfurt route starting February 01. Flights operated five times a week.
