Expanding its network, Air India subsidiary Alliance Air will launch three new flights from Mumbai to Agra, Allahabad and Gwalior next month.

Aiming at connecting tier-II and tier-III cities with the metros, the national carrier had launched a daily Delhi- Gwalior-Mumbai flight in April 2011. However, the flight was discontinued in May this year due to poor load factor.

Flight on Mumbai-Gwalior route would operate on Mondays and Thursdays, while on Mumbai-Agra route it will operate on Tuesdays and Fridays.
