AA Business Class To Delhi, Up To 8 Seats
Hope you're enjoying your weekend!
I wanted to flag some business class award space on American's nonstop flight from New York to Delhi in late summer. Yes, I now the weather is a bit hot but, if you need to travel during the summer or are visiting family, it could work!
You could also use this flight to Delhi as a jumping off point to Mumbai, Sri Lanka, and the Maldives. You might need to book a separate ticket to your destination, but this AA flight will get you close!
Great flag by STTP Premium member Steve!
Now, let's get into it!

Flight Experience
American operates a Boeing 777-300 on this route. Business class is arranged in a 1-2-1 reverse herringbone cabin layout so each seat is lie-flat and has direct aisle access. All things considered, it's nice seat.

Final Thoughts
We don't see a ton of non-stop business class award space to India on American, so this is a great chance to book! I wouldn't mind hopping down to Sri Lanka as part of this trip!
Happy booking!
