As a measure to boost the ties between India-Israel, Air India on Thursday inaugurated its direct flight service between the two capital cities. Air India Chairman Pradeep Singh Kharola and the Director of Israel Ministry of Tourism (IMOT) Hassan Madah began this new chapter by cutting a cake at the inauguration ceremony. This is also the first flight that will fly over Saudi Arabia covering a shorter route that will save three hours, to complete the journey in mere seven hours. It may be noted that Israel's national carrier, El Al, already operates direct flights between Tel Aviv and Mumbai.
