National air-carrier Air India on Thursday said it has been formally invited to join the world's premier airline grouping Star Alliance.
A formal invitation was extended to Air India's Chairman V Thulasidas during Star Alliance's Board meeting in Beijing today.
Following the invitation, Air India will announce the date of joining the alliance soon, he said.
"It will be a win-win situation for both Air India and Star Alliance," he added.
Joining the alliance would increase Air India's revenue by 3-4 per cent, which would come out to be about Rs 400 crore, Thulasidas said.
