Indian airline starts flights between Delhi and Baku

IndiGo has opened up new gateways between India and Central Asia, with the starting of new flights to Baku, the officials announced, Yayin.Az informs, citing local media.

The capital city of Azerbaijan is now connected to Delhi four times a week, starting August 11. Baku is the 30th international destination and 108th overall destination in the airline’s network. This new route will not only provide enriching experiences to business travelers but also mesmerize leisure travelers seeking culturally immersive journeys, officials claimed.

More than 47,670 people visited Azerbaijan from India in the first half of this year, which means an increase of more than 3 times compared to the same period of 2022 and 1.7 times compared to the same period of 2019.

A simplified e-visa system is applied to Indian citizens for travel to Azerbaijan. Until now, they could come to our country through direct flights operated by Azerbaijan Airlines JSC (AZAL) in the Delhi-Baku-Delhi direction.
