Air India unveils India-inspired new amenity kits

Delhi : Air India has introduced a new collection of amenity kits and loungewear for international passengers, combining Indian art, textile traditions and Ayurvedic wellness with contemporary design. The collection, developed with luxury wellness brand Forest Essentials, was launched in October 2026.

The updated amenities are available on flights lasting more than eight hours and overnight services exceeding six hours, with offerings      tailored to different cabin classes.

First Class passengers will receive kits featuring Gond artwork created exclusively for the airline by artist Dwarka Paraste. Part of the "Art of Flight" collection, the designs will use different colors for outbound and inbound journeys and be refreshed every six months. Forest Essentials products include facial mist, sunscreen lotion, lip cream, body milk and perfume.

Business Class passengers will receive kits from the "Navratna Collection," inspired by India's traditional nine gems. The Jharoka-shaped bags will feature coral or ruby colors depending on the direction of travel, alongside skincare products and travel essentials.

Both First and Business Class guests will also receive a wooden Ayurvedic Marma massager designed to support relaxation during flights.

Premium Economy kits will include hand cream, lip balm, socks and an eye mask in reusable Air India-branded bags.

The airline is also introducing First and Business Class loungewear inspired by Himachal Pradesh's Kullu weaving tradition. The gender-neutral collection features subtle geometric detailing, comfortable fabric and four sizes, including XXL.
