Birmingham Airport bosses say they are so thrilled at news of more flights to India that they are doing "backward somersaults of joy".
Air India has announced it is increasing its weekly flights to Birmingham from one to six. It is adding two additional weekly services from Birmingham to Amritsar and three new services to Delhi, with the additional flights phased in between October and December.
It means services will come close to the levels seen before Covid-19. During the pandemic, flight frequency between Birmingham and India was reduced from seven to one.
