Decision on Air India's induction into Star Alliance today

New Delhi: The brass of Star Alliance will meet in London on Monday to decide on Air India's induction into the 26-member global airlines’ grouping which could give the government-owned carrier's passengers the facility of seamless travel to over 1,200 destinations. If the membership is granted, it would end Air India's seven-year wait to access the alliance's global network of 18,000 daily flights to 1,269 airports in 193 countries.

The member-airlines of Star Alliance together own a total of 4,338 aircraft and fly 640 million passengers a year, many of whom can also earn and burn frequent flyer miles on the entire alliance network.


The Star Alliance Chief Executive Board (CEB), at its meeting in London on Monday, could give an endorsement vote to induct Air India into the fold, paving the way for the integration of all its systems, including ticket booking and flight scheduling, into the global network.
