India and China to Restart Flights After Five Years
After a more than five-year pause, India and China will resume direct air service later this month. Leading the comeback, Indian low-cost carrier IndiGo—led by CEO Pieter Elbers—will recommence daily flights on October 26, 2025, between Kolkata in eastern India and Guangzhou in southern China. Elbers noted this is a “very important step” and that IndiGo intends to introduce further direct routes into China.
