Air India creates History with flight to Israel overflying Saudi Arabia

Air India creates History with flight to Israel overflying Saudi Arabia.

In a historic moment which may have global implications Air India is the first airline to fly to Israel overflying Saudi airspace.

Air India 139 landed at Tel Aviv's Ben Gurion Airport after a flight of over 7-1/2 hours, marking a diplomatic shift for Riyadh that Israel says was fuelled by shared concern over Iranian influence in the region.
