In an advisory issued on Tuesday, India also requested its nationals to keep the Embassy informed about the status of their presence to enable the Embassy to reach them where required.
These flights are scheduled for February 22, 24 and 26. The flights would operate to the Boryspil International Airport. In response to requests on the micro-blogging site for more flights, the airline stated that it was in the process of increasing the number of flights.
The Embassy of India in Kyiv has been flooded with complaints about non-availability of flights ever since its advisory urging Indian citizens to leave the country due to the escalating tensions between Ukraine and Russia.
On Thursday, the government removed the cap on the number of flights permitted between the two countries, allowing airlines to mount additional flights to cater to the increase in demand for travel back to India.
So far, no Indian carrier was flying to Ukraine. The Ukraine International Airlines, however, has direct flights to India and other airlines like Air Arabia, FlyDubai and Qatar Airways have one-stop flights to India.
