Japan Airlines flights to New Delhi will park in a different terminal from July 30.

The carrier's flight operations will move from Terminal 2 of Indira Gandhi International Airport in New Delhi, to the airport's newest Terminal 3.

In Terminal 3, JAL customers can check in for their flights at a dedicated JAL check-in island located near the security screeners and from mid-August*, eligible JAL passengers may also access the lounge of India's domestic carrier - Kingfisher. Kingfisher is slated to join JAL in the oneworld airline alliance in 2011. The lounge offers wireless LAN connection, showers and a business centre among other amenities.

The construction of the ultra-modern Terminal 3, a befitting symbol of India's swift and vast economic growth and expansion, was completed within 37 months and boasts the use of state-of-the-art technologies. Its function as a strategic hub in South Asia is highly anticipated. The 120-acre terminal, in which several Indian carriers are also scheduled to commence domestic operations from August 27*2, will enable passengers to smoothly transfer between international and domestic flights. In addition, it is c convenient gateway for passengers traveling from the east of Asia to the Middle East.

Japan Airlines operates three weekly flights direct from Tokyo, Narita to New Delhi using a Boeing 777-200 configured with the award-winning JAL Shell flat seat in Executive class and JAL Sky Shell Seat in Premium Economy.

*Information of an interim lounge that will be used before the completion of the relocation will be provided to passengers.
