Beginning 25th March 2026, Air India will operate 4 weekly flights between Delhi and Rome (Leonardo da Vinci International Airport – Fiumicino), just in time for guests travelling from India to plan their springtime travels or summer holidays in Europe.
The service to / from Rome will operate on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays with Boeing 787-8 Dreamliners featuring 18 flat beds in Business Class and 238 seats in Economy Class.
Italy is one of India’s largest trading partners in Europe, and passenger traffic between the two countries continues to rise, supported by a large Indian community in Italy and growing interest among Indian travellers in Italian art, history, cuisine, and experiences.
Air India’s flights to Rome are timed to offer convenient connections via Delhi to destinations such as Bangkok, Colombo, Ho Chi Minh City, Kathmandu, Kuala Lumpur, Manila, Phuket and Singapore. With the addition of Rome, Air India serves 8 points in mainland Europe and three points in the United Kingdom.
