  "summary": "Air India has announced the restoration of most of its international flights, effective September 1, following a reduction of nearly 27% in response to escalating fuel costs. The airline, which suspended 145 weekly international routes between June and August 2026, will add additional frequencies on several key long-haul routes, bringing its schedule back to pre-cut levels. CEO Campbell Wilson stated that while fuel prices remain higher than before the Middle East conflict and are volatile, they have moderated from their peak, enabling the restorations and frequency increases.",
