Further, Delta Air Lines has no direct flights to India.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/aviationa2z.com\/?s=Air+India\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Air India (AI)<\/a> had earlier launched a Hyderabad to <a href=\"https:\/\/aviationa2z.com\/?s=Chicago\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Chicago (ORD) <\/a>service, but it was rerouted via Delhi after a few months. Additionally, Air India&#8217;s service to London Heathrow ended in March 2023, with some operations shifting to Gatwick.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hyderabad is currently connected to only two European cities. Firstly, <a href=\"https:\/\/aviationa2z.com\/?s=British+Airways\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">British Airways (BA)<\/a> offers daily flights to London Heathrow (LHR), and secondly, <a href=\"https:\/\/aviationa2z.com\/?s=Lufthansa\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Lufthansa (LH)<\/a> operates five weekly flights to Frankfurt (FRA).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Due to the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine since 2022, Western sanctions on Russia prevent airlines from using Russian airspace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a result, establishing a direct connection seems unlikely unless the situation changes. Unlike Western carriers, Air India retains the right to use Russian airspace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So Air India might start direct flights from Hyderabad to US cities. As we reported, Air India is already<a href=\"https:\/\/aviationa2z.com\/index.php\/2024\/04\/25\/petition-air-india-start-new-flight-to-dallas\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> planning to launch flights between Dallas (DFW)<\/a> and HYD.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Join us on\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/t.me\/aviationa2z\">Telegram Group<\/a>\u00a0for the Latest Aviation Updates.
