New Air India Experience
January 2025
A new year comes with the promise of prospects. It brims with plans—for some it’s exploring new locales, for others it is revisiting familiar places through a new lens. Most of all, a new year heralds hope—and that makes everything brighter.
On this note, let’s ponder on some emerging trends as travellers push the envelope when it comes to traversing new paths. In our Cover Story, we highlight some of them—a Quiet-cation in the Tirthan Valley to connect to nature’s music; Set-jetting to locations like Paris and Lake Como, where some of OTT’s most popular shows have been recently shot; Destination Dupes like Galway and Perth that offer you an authentic experience of their respective countries, instead of bigger cities.
In India, we take you to a little-known gem, the Jhalana Leopard Reserve in Jaipur, where the possibilities of sightings are high. For a short trip, try Kochi, replete with culture and cuisine. We also feature Vienna, decked in celebration as it marks the birthday of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.
Music has the power to heal, and that’s what Padma Vibhushan Zubin Mehta talks to us about. We are also joined by actor Nandita Das who delves into her Odia legacy, showcasing its cuisine. We unveil Frame by Frame—where a photographer’s lens does the talking. This time, Air India’s crew recreates iconic cinematic moments in the Big
Apple, as Air India deploys its flagship A350 aircraft on the Delhi-New York (JFK) and Delhi-Newark (EWR) routes. A ‘New Air India Experience’ beckons!
Here’s to experiencing the new!
