The long haul budget carrier said the flights to Incheon (Seoul) will initially be operated weekly on Wednesdays and returning on Thursdays.

Flights to New Delhi will resume twice weekly on Wednesdays and Sundays returning on the same days.

Both services are on sale now for travel between April 20 and June 30, 2022, with additional services to be added in the near future.

He said that anyone with outstanding bookings or credit accounts can now use these to book its new services.

“We are also preparing travel vouchers for our guests who have unutilised credit, to use for future bookings, which will be announced in the near future,” he added.
