AIR India Express (AIE), the low cost airline operated by Air India, will be introduced in Bahrain next summer and not this October as previously announced, said a senior official.
"There is no question of AIE coming to Bahrain before the next summer season," Dubai-based Regional Director (Gulf) for Air-India Sanjeev Talwar told the GDN.
He cited the shortage of aircraft and 'diversion of planes to other lucrative routes' as the reason behind the move.
The airline was first expected to fly in to Bahrain in April last year when it was reported the first flight would land only in winter.
This schedule was again revised to happen with the advent of the summer this year.
