he DGCA has extended the ban on scheduled international commercial passenger flights in India to 11.59 pm on 31 May 2021. The DGCA issued a circular in this regard on Friday.

Services suspended since March last year

But special international flights have been operating under the Vande Bharat Mission since May and under the bilateral Air Bubble Arrangement since July. India has entered into air bubble agreements with 27 countries, including the US, UK, UAE, Kenya, Bhutan and France. Under the air bubble agreement between the two countries, their airlines can operate special international flights between regions.
