New Delhi:

In a series of unexpected disruptions, Air India recently announced the cancellation of approximately 60 flights to and from the United States between now and the end of December 2024. The primary reasons cited are delays in returning widebody aircraft from maintenance and issues within the supply chain, which have temporarily reduced the airline’s operational fleet. This article explores the factors contributing to these cancellations, affected routes, and how passengers might respond to the changes.

Top Reasons behind the Cancelations

Aircraft Maintenance Delays

Air India is facing challenges in bringing back some of its widebody aircraft from maintenance, a process that can take months for aircraft needing substantial overhauls. The delay stems from “heavy maintenance” requirements, which typically involve extensive repairs and parts replacements, pushing some of Air India’s aircraft out of service for longer than anticipated.

Supply Chain Constrains 

Alongside maintenance delays, supply chain issues have further exacerbated Air India’s difficulties. The aviation industry globally is grappling with supply chain bottlenecks that impact the availability of critical aircraft parts, adding to the time required for maintenance. This has resulted in unplanned groundings that have curtailed Air India’s ability to keep up with its usual operations.

Fleet Composition and Utilization Challenges

Air India’s widebody fleet comprises Airbus A350-900s, Boeing 777-200LRs, Boeing 777-300ERs, and Boeing 787-8 Dreamliners. However, at least ten of these aircraft are currently out of service—five B777-300ERs and five B787-8s—which has directly impacted the airline’s ability to cover routes, especially long-haul flights to the United States.

What Can the Affected Passengers Do?
