This is great news for those wishing to see more of India, as well as those looking to visit their family.
Abu Dhabi Airports has announced new daily flights from Zayed International Airport to Chandigarh and Kannur, alongside the resumption of daily flights to Lucknow.

Sorlini stated, “The launch of these new routes marks an important milestone in the commitment to our partnership and readiness to expand and diversify our network of destinations.
“This enhanced connectivity not only strengthens our position as a preferred hub in the region but also reinforces Abu Dhabi’s connectivity with key destinations in India.”
