Jet Airways on Tuesday announced addition of two new routes on its international network. The airline will commence non-stop flights between Mumbai and Manchester, and between Pune and Singapore this winter, it said in a press release. Jet Airways said it will also introduce additional flights on select existing routes - Delhi-Singapore, Delhi-Dubai, Delhi-Bagdogra and Bengaluru-Pune - to "meet growing travel demand".

Jet Airways said it would become the first airline in the country to operate a non-stop service between Mumbai and Manchester. That would make Manchester the 21st addition on the airline's international network, it noted.
