As someone who frequently travels between Varanasi and Bhubaneswar for work, this is excellent news. The layover in Durgapur might be inconvenient though.

The Copenhagen route is interesting! More European destinations mean better options for Indian travelers. Hope they expand to more Scandinavian countries soon.
