In a recent update, Nagpur Airport is ready to launch new flights to boost regional connectivity. The new flight routes to Noida, Jaipur, and Kolhapur will begin from March 30. Additionally, the airport will also increase the number of flights to prime cities in India including Pune, Bengaluru, Delhi, Indore, and Kolkata.
The decision to introduce these new flights came after a meeting of the slot coordination committee, comprising representatives from the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA), Airports Authority of India (AAI), and Mihan India Limited (MIL). Following their approval, these new services have been incorporated into the summer flight schedule, aimed at improving connectivity for the city of Nagpur.
This expansion follows the completion of major runway recarpeting, which had previously limited flight operations between 10 AM and 6 PM. Now, with the improvements in place, passengers can look forward to greater flexibility and more options for travel.
