Private Indian airline to fly to South Africa this year; AI to resume flights by mid '06

Durban: Air India would resume flights to South Africa by the middle of this year, said Indian HighCommissioner Satyabrata Pal.
He was speaking at the launch of a three-day India trade exhibition by Indian small businesses in Cape Town, the third such since 2004 aimed at co-operation between Indian Small and Medium Enterprises (SMMEs) and South African small entrepreneurs.
Pal also said Air India will resume flights to South Africa by mid-2006 and that a private Indian airline would also fly to South Africa.
Air India first started flights to South Africa after the post-apartheid democratic Government took over in 1994 but stopped the service some years later. Only South African Airways maintained its flights between the two countries.
