Out of 10 A332/333s they will need due to 787 delay , 4 are actively sourcing right now , for first delivery next month .
The article isn't very clear , saying they already have 2 for Hadj flights to JED.Are these 2 the Novair leased planes , they already have for months now ?
Also the article only says A330 , but read in another French speaking one , this could be A332 or A333 or both.
Could Emirates be the source for the next 6 to be added on lease ?

I'll clear that for you.

Air India won't be operating Haj flights this year. The ex- novair planes do regular scheduled flights from BOM and DEL to JED. In addition to that, the Nov Air A332s do 4 weekly BOM-DEL-PVG and v.v

While the routes are not decided, but the A332s that would come would surely do the DEL - HKG - KIX/ICN run. It remains to see where will the use the remaining A330s. Maybe DMM/RUH or replace the Novair A332s.
