The Tata-Singapore joint venture airline Vistara will soon extend its daily flight services from Kolkata, touching some new destinations.

Instead of two daily flights between Kolkata and Delhi, Vistara would soon operate seven flights daily from the city touching three new destinations, the airline CEO P Yeoh told a press conference accompanied by West Bengal finance minister Amit Mitra after meeting him at the state secretariat Nabanna.

"Following this decision, Vistara will connect three new destinations of Guwahati, Port Blair and Bangalore with Kolkata, keeping intact its existing operation on the Kolkata- Delhi sector," Mitra said.

If these services were found economically viable, the airline has assured to further enhance its operations by October this year, increasing its number of flights and destinations from Kolkata, the minister added.
