Night flights may soon be a reality in Kashmir

Srinagar: Night flights which has been a long pending dream for Kashmir may soon be a reality. The authorities at the Srinagar airport say they are working hard to build the infrastructure for it and the flights could land by August this year. The officials are building approach lights for night landing of the flights.

The moment we have proper set up in place the airlines will be sure that the infrastructure is ready, they will start evening flights. Work is on to make the night landing facility possible sooner within a few months, said an official at the Srinagar airport.

In Kashmir most people including tourism operators have been demanding that landing and takeoff facilities should be extended till night. At the moment the first flight operates at 6 am and the last flight operates at around 6:30 pm. As per the details once the infrastructure is available initially the flights will operate till 8 pm and then subsequently till 10 pm.
