WASHINGTON—United Airlines said Wednesday it plans to add new non-stop flights to Africa, India, and Hawaii as it reconfigures its network in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic.

The No. 3 U.S. airline said next year it will operate the first direct flights between the United States and Bangalore, India—launching flights to and from San Francisco. Both cities are tech hubs.
