Soon, fliers may get to take autos from IGIA

New Delhi: Passengers travelling by budget carriers now might have an option of hiring an auto rickshaw from the Delhi airport. At present, auto rickshaws are not allowed to pick up passengers from the Indira Gandhi International Airport by the Delhi Traffic Police. At the new Terminal 3, auto rickshaws and
public transport buses are stopped two kilometres ahead of the terminal and passengers transferred to shuttle buses.
Though pre-paid taxi and radio cabs are readily available at the airport, there are no pre-paid auto rickshaw booths. Auto rickshaws dropping passengers at the airport are not allowed to wait or pick up passengers.
Auto rickshaws, however, might now be allowed at the domestic departure terminal 1D once the full cost carriers and their low cost arms shift to the Terminal 3. Terminal 1D will house only budget carriers IndiGo, Go Air and SpiceJet.
