Until now. “Lufthansa will fly four days to Delhi, three days to Mumbai and three days to Bengaluru. Air India will fly five times a week from Delhi and twice a week from Bengaluru to Frankfurt ”, said India's Aviation Minister Hardeep Singh Puri von aero.de cited.

India had previously accused the German representatives of not approving Air India flights enough, contrary to the bilateral corridor agreement.
