Air India and Air India Express passengers can rebook for free their Saudi Arabia flight ticket to any alternate Gulf airport (other GCC countries). This is applicable for passengers holding confirmed Air India or Air India Express bookings issued on or before 15 October 2026, with travel dates between 9 October and 25 October 2026
In view of the prevailing situation, Air India and Air India Express have temporarily suspended flights to and from Jeddah, Riyadh and Dammam until 24 October 2026. We understand that these disruptions may affect our guests' travel plans and are committed to providing as much flexibility as possible during this period. Guests holding confirmed Air India or Air India Express bookings issued on or before 15 October 2026, with travel dates between 9 October and 25 October 2026, are eligible for a one-time complimentary date change on their respective airline up to 10 November 2026. Guests who do not wish to rebook on the originally preferred sector for a future date may, instead, choose to rebook from an alternative station in the GCC region served by their respective airline, subject to availability. Guests choosing the latter option are required to make their own travel arrangements to get to their preferred alternative point of departure and meet the applicable visa and entry requirements. Air India guests may rebook to or from Dubai or Doha. Air India Express guests may rebook to or from Abu Dhabi, Al Ain, Bahrain, Doha, Dubai, Kuwait, Muscat, Ras Al Khaimah, Salalah or Sharjah. Guests whose flights have been cancelled may also opt for a full refund if they choose not to travel. Our teams are available through our contact centres (AI Contact Centre: +91 1169329333 / +91 1169329999, AIX Contact Centre: +91 124 6935600) and city booking offices in GCC stations and India to assist with rebooking and refund requests. We continue to closely monitor the situation and will keep guests informed of any further updates. Our priority remains to support affected guests, minimise inconvenience, and help them continue their journeys with suitable travel options. #TravelAdvisory

Imagine walking through a corridor fitted with AI-enabled cameras instead of queuing up at immigration counters for a passport scan. At the cruise terminal at Cochin port this may soon become a reality.

India is all set to introduce its first AI-driven immigration corridor at Cochin Port, allowing international cruise travellers to clear border control by simply walking past cameras. Instead of waiting to have their passports scanned, travellers can walk through a corridor lined with smart cameras that verify their identity in real time. ✍️ @aneeshp thehindubusinessline.com/eco…

This is my friend @SwatySMalik , a lawyer, exercising her constitutional right to peaceful protest alongside fellow lawyers. She is singled out, and an attempt is made to forcibly put her into a car. What possible justification is there for treating a peaceful protester this way? 💁🏻‍♀️
