Number of flights likely to soar this summer

Mohali: The number of flights operating from the Chandigarh international airport in the summer schedule, from March 26 to October 27, is expected to increase.
An airport official said on condition of anonymity, “Up to 34 flights will operate as per the tentative summer schedule. The final list will see an addition of a few domestic flights, including to Pune, Ahmedabad, Jammu and Dharamsala.”
The watch hours at the airport, currently from 5 am to 4 pm, will change to 7.20 am to 5.30 pm from March 26 and it is likely that the extended period will open up slots for more flights.
Chandigarh is set to be connected to Ahmedabad as GoAir is expected to start a direct flight to the textile hub in Gujarat in the summer schedule. This will be the fourth GoAir flight from the city after Delhi, Bengaluru and Mumbai. Sources said the flight would depart from the airport at 3.35 pm. Jet Airways had earlier announced a direct flight from Chandigarh to Pune from March 26. The flight would take off from Chandigarh for Pune at 2.40 pm and it would operate from Monday to Saturday.
