British Airways ramps up services to India for summer

As demand for direct travel has increased due to disruptions in connections via Gulf hubs, British Airways has increased its capacity on India-UK routes, adding flights and deploying larger aircraft to key cities.

The airline said it saw a 196% increase in travel searches, causing it to add more than 7,000 seats per week from India. At its peak, it will operate up to 70 weekly flights between India and London Heathrow.
