Air India now cuts single aisle flights by 5% 'at least' till mid July

NEW DELHI: After a 15% cut in wide body flights, Air India Sunday said it is temporarily reducing narrow body operations by about 5% till at least July 15, 2025. AI uses its Airbus A320 family of single aisles mostly on domestic and nearby international routes. Three daily flights — between Bengaluru & Singapore (AI 2392/2393), Pune & Singapore (AI 2111/2110) and Mumbai & Bagdogra (AI 551/552) — have been suspended till July 15. 'This voluntary decision leads to the temporary suspension of Air India's services on three routes and reduction of frequency on 19 routes. The changes are effective until at least July 15, 2025. These reductions are aimed at strengthening Air India's network-wide operational stability and minimising last-minute inconvenience to passengers. Despite these temporary reductions, Air India will continue to operate close to 600 daily flights with its narrowbody aircraft on 120 domestic and short-haul international routes,' AI said in a statement. 'Air India apologises to the passengers affected by these curtailments and is proactively contacting affected passengers to offer re-accommodation on alternative flights, complimentary rescheduling or full refunds as per their preferences…. We remain committed to restoring our full schedule as soon as practicable, while at all times prioritising the safety of our passengers, crew and aircraft,' it added.

Iran-Israel war & US bombings: Should possible Strait of Hormuz closure worry India about its oil supply? Explained in 10 points

India's reliance on crude oil imports is at approximately 90%, with Middle Eastern nations supplying more than 40% of these imports. (AI image) Iran-Israel war & Strait of Hormuz: With escalating tensions between Iran and Israel, especially after the US bombed nuclear facilities in Iran earlier today, there are rising fears of the Strait of Hormuz being closed. The Strait of Hormuz is a crucial maritime passage handling 20% of global oil and gas transportation. According to state-run media, Iran's Parliament has approved the closure of Strait of Hormuz and the final decision will be taken by Iran's Supreme National Security Council. What will be the impact of the potential closure of the Strait of Hormuz? And importantly, how will India be hit? We take a look: Why is the Strait of Hormuz important? The Strait of Hormuz serves as a crucial maritime connection between the Persian Gulf and the Arabian Sea, extending into the Indian Ocean. This vital waterway, with its narrowest section at just 21 miles (33 kilometres), has Iran to the north and the Arabian Peninsula to the south. The navigable channels are considerably restricted, extending only two miles in either direction, which creates vulnerability to potential blockades and hostile actions. The Strait of Hormuz holds immense strategic and economic significance, particularly as a mandatory route for oil vessels departing from Persian Gulf ports. This maritime passage facilitates the transportation of one-fifth of global oil and gas supplies. Statistics from the US Energy Information Administration (EIA) indicate that in 2024, the daily transport volume reached 20.3 million barrels of oil and 290 million cubic metres of LNG. The major oil-producing nations of the region - Saudi Arabia, Iraq, UAE, Qatar, Iran, and Kuwait - rely on this passage for their exports. Whilst historical concerns about disruptions to Persian Gulf energy flows majorly affected Western nations, particularly the US and Europe, in today's situation the implications would most significantly impact China and Asian countries. Based on EIA data quoted by PTI, Asian nations received 8% of crude oil and condensate shipments through the Strait of Hormuz in 2022. India, China, Japan, and South Korea collectively made up 67% of total flows during 2022 and the firstl six months of 2023. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Cuối cùng, chơi miễn phí game chiến thuật hay nhất 2025! Sea of Conquest Phát ngay Undo Also Read | 'Highest in two years': India increases oil imports from Russia, US amidst Iran-Israel war; why it's about strategic positioning, not panic India's reliance on crude oil imports is at approximately 90%, with Middle Eastern nations, whose exports pass through the Strait of Hormuz, supplying more than 40% of these imports. EIA reports indicate that during the first quarter of 2025, China's crude imports via the Strait of Hormuz reached 5.4 million bpd. India received 2.1 million bpd, whilst South Korea and Japan imported 1.7 million bpd and 1.6 million bpd respectively. The IEA has emphasised that any interference with the flow through the Strait would significantly impact global oil markets. How will the closure of Strait of Hormuz impact India? India imports 5.5 million barrels per day (bpd) of crude oil, with 2 million bpd passing through this strategic waterway. However, experts suggest that India's position remains secure due to its diversified import strategy, with alternative suppliers including Russia, the United States and Brazil available to maintain supply continuity. The Russian oil supply remains unaffected by Hormuz-related disruptions, as it uses alternative routes including the Suez Canal, Cape of Good Hope, or Pacific Ocean pathways. Similarly, supplies from the US, West Africa, and Latin America, though more expensive, serve as viable alternatives. Regarding gas supplies, India's primary supplier Qatar delivers without using the Strait of Hormuz for Indian shipments. Additional LNG sources from Australia, Russia and the US remain accessible regardless of any Strait of Hormuz closure . However, analysts predict that increasing tensions in this significant energy supply region could cause short-term price fluctuations, potentially pushing oil prices towards $80 per barrel. India relies on imports for 90% of its crude oil requirements and sources approximately half of its natural gas from international markets. The imported crude oil undergoes refining to produce petrol and diesel, while natural gas serves multiple purposes including power generation, fertiliser production, CNG for vehicles, and domestic cooking gas supply. India obtains approximately 40% of its oil requirements from Middle Eastern countries including Iraq, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, and Kuwait, with shipments travelling through the Strait of Hormuz. Russia has become a significant oil supplier to India, with current imports exceeding the total imports from Middle Eastern nations. According to preliminary trade data from Kpler, Indian refineries imported 2-2.2 million bpd of Russian crude oil in June, surpassing the combined imports of about 2 million bpd from Iraq, Saudi Arabia, the UAE and Kuwait, marking the highest level in two years. Additionally, imports from the United States increased to 439,000 bpd in June, showing substantial growth from 280,000 bpd in the previous month. Although current supplies remain stable, vessel movements indicate a reduction in crude loadings from the Middle East in the forthcoming period. Vessel operators are showing reluctance to dispatch empty tankers (ballasters) to the Gulf, with numbers decreasing from 69 to 40, whilst MEG-bound signals from the Gulf of Oman have reduced by half. Kpler reports quoted by PTI indicate potential tightening of MEG supplies in the immediate future, possibly necessitating adjustments to India's procurement strategy, noting significant changes in India's import patterns over the past two years. In the event of escalating tensions or temporary Hormuz disruptions, Russian oil supplies could increase, providing both availability and cost advantages. India has options to diversify its oil imports from the United States, Nigeria, Angola, and Brazil, despite higher transportation expenses. On June 13, Oil Minister Hardeep Singh Puri confirmed India's sufficient energy reserves for upcoming months, with capability to access alternative sources if needed. India can utilise its strategic petroleum reserves, which cover 9-10 days of imports, to manage any supply gaps. To control inflation during price surges, particularly for diesel and LPG, the government maintains the option of implementing price subsidies. Will oil prices rise? Global oil prices saw a sharp increase after Israel launched attacks targeting Iranian military commanders, homes, military installations and nuclear facilities on June 13. Iran retaliated by firing numerous ballistic missiles. This heightened tension caused oil prices to rise substantially, as concerns grew about geopolitical instability and potential supply chain disruptions. The benchmark Brent crude oil has reached $77 per barrel, marking a 10 per cent increase since the onset of hostilities. According to oil market specialists at Goldman Sachs, prices could potentially rise beyond $90 should the situation deteriorate further. Citigroup analysts project that Brent crude values might approach $90 per barrel in the event of a closure of the Strait of Hormuz. The credit rating organisation Icra indicated that any intensification of regional tensions could have considerable effects on oil prices. Higher oil prices would reduce the profits that state-owned retailers IOC, BPCL and HPCL have built up by maintaining stable retail prices despite previous decreases in international rates. Also Read | Iran-Israel conflict: India keeping tab on Chabahar Port, International North-South Transport Corridor; why it's important According to Jain of Yes Securities, oil markets remain adequately supplied, supported by OPEC's 4 million barrels per day spare capacity and a pre-conflict global surplus of 0.9 million bpd. Additional stability comes from US shale production. Global security analysts deem an extended blockage of the Strait of Hormuz unlikely, given the US naval forces in the region. Any such action by Iran would not only impact the oil exports of Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Kuwait and Qatar but would also hamper its own export capabilities. Despite aggressive rhetoric from Iranian conservatives and state media predictions of oil prices reaching $400 per barrel, the international trade analysis organisation Kpler suggests the probability of a complete blockade remains minimal, citing significant deterrents for Iran. Such an action would severely affect China, Iran's primary oil buyer, which sources 47 per cent of its maritime crude imports from the Middle East Gulf region. As the world's second-largest economy, China stands as the principal purchaser of Iranian oil, reportedly consuming more than three-quarters of Iran's oil exports. The fact that Iran relies heavily on the Strait of Hormuz for its oil shipments through Kharg Island, which manages 96% of its exports, makes any self-imposed blockade counterproductive to its interests.
