The Director-General of Civil Aviation on Sunday extended the ban of international commercial passenger flights till September 30, 2021, citing the increase of the Covid-19 cases. The circular released stated that a few international scheduled flights may be allowed on selected routes and the competent authority will be taking a decision on this.
DGCA further clarified that the restriction is not applied to international all-cargo operations and flights specifically approved. “In a partial modification on a circular dated June 26, 2021, the competent authority has further extended the validity of the circular issued on the subject cited above regarding Scheduled International commercial passenger service to/from India till 2359 hrs IST of 30th September 2021,” stated the DGCA circular.

India has also agreed to bilateral ‘air bubble’ arrangements with several countries since July 2020.
