Air India announced in July that it will fly its Airbus A350 jets to Newark and JFK Airports in just a few months.
The announcement comes as part of a larger rebrand for the Indian flag carrier. Two years ago, the government sold Air India to the Tata Group conglomerate, and former Scoot CEO Campbell Wilson was hired to lead the transformation.
Last year, Air India ordered 470 new jets — including 40 A350s.
