India extends ban on international commercial flights till Nov 30

NEW DELHI: India's civil aviation regulator on Friday extended the ban on scheduled international commercial flights till November 30.

In the notification, the Directorate General of Central Aviation (DGCA), however, said: "This restriction shall not apply to international all-cargo operations and flights specifically approved by the DGCA."

It also said that scheduled international flights might be allowed on selected routes on a case to case basis.

The Central government had banned the operation of international flights on March 23 last year to contain and control the spread of Covid-19.
