Air India welcomes cockpit crew welcome on historic flight

After the airline was handed over to the Tata Group earlier today, Air India has updated its cockpit crew welcome announcement for tomorrow. The passengers know that Air India has become a part of the Tata group after seven decades. With the new announcement, Air India welcomes passengers aboard a historic flight, which marks a special event. The new welcome announcement will be made by all Air India pilots after door closure on every flight departing January 28, 2022, according to a circular issued by Air India's operations department. It said all pilots must be fully aware of the new welcome announcement.

Dear Guests, welcome aboard this historic flight, which is a special event, according to your Captain Name. After seven decades, Air India becomes a part of the Tata Group.

We look forward to serving you on this and every Air India flight with renewed commitment and passion. On October, the government had announced that Talace Private Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of Tata Sons, had won the bid to acquire debt-laden Air India. Tata had outbid a consortium led by SpiceJet promoter Ajay Singh by offering 18,000 crore.

The Air India disinvestment process is now over. Tuhin Kant Pandey, Secretary of the Department of Investment Public Asset Management DIPAM, stated on Thursday that shares have been transferred to Talace Pvt Ltd, which is the new owner of Air India. After nearly 70 years, Tata Group returns.
