JERUSALEM, March 22 (Reuters) - Israel's tourism minister said on Thursday that Singapore Airlines and a Filipino airline were exploring the introduction of flights to and from Tel Aviv that would pass through Saudi airspace.

The minister, Yariv Levin, spoke after Air India launched its first flight from New Delhi to Tel Aviv on a route scheduled to take the plane over Saudi Arabia, a country that does not recognise Israel.

Granting overflight rights to Air India ended a 70-year blanket Saudi airspace ban on routes to and from Israel, but did not appear to herald any immediate change in policy towards Israeli airlines.

'P&W to deliver two engines to Indigo on Wednesday, remaining within next 40 days'



NEW DELHI (Reuters) - Pratt & Whitney will soon begin deliveries of spare engines to IndiGo airlines, which was forced to ground eight of its Airbus A320neo aircraft last week after engine problems, a source familiar with the matter told Reuters.

P&W, owned by United Technologies Corp, will deliver two engines on Wednesday and the remaining within the next 40 days, said the source who did not want to identified.

A series of in-flight engine failures prompted India’s aviation regulator to ground 11 aircraft last week fitted with certain P&W engines and operated by IndiGo, the country’s biggest carrier by market share, and rival GoAir.

That led to the cancellation of hundreds of flights and about a 5 percent fall in the share price of IndiGo’s parent, InterGlobe Aviation, over the past week.

Air India to begin service to Tel Aviv from Thursday



The disinvestment-bound national carrier Air India will deploy a 256-seater Boeing 787-800 on the New Delhi-Tel Aviv route that will be launched from Thursday.

Air India had on March 7 announced a tri-weekly flights to Tel Aviv from March 22, after Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu had announced that Saudi Arabia had allowed India to fly over its territory.

It will deploy a 256-seater Boeing 787 Dreamliner aircraft on the new route, the airline said today.

Air India will fly over Oman, Saudi Arabia and Jordan to reach Israel, taking seven hours to the destination, making it the fastest air route between the two countries.

The duration of the flight between New Delhi and Tel Aviv will be around two hours shorter than the time taken by Israel's national carrier El Al, which has direct flights between Tel Aviv and Mumbai, Air India said in the statement.
The national carrier had planned to launch the service last May, but that did not happen after some countries denied use of their airspace for flights to Israel.
