New Delhi: Passengers of the three full cost domestic carriers - Air India, Jet and Kingfisher - may finally be able to check in at the New Delhi metro station by June 1. The civil aviation ministry took a review meeting on Tuesday and said that work on coordinating trials and implementing security apparatus was going on as per schedule.
"After our last meeting, work has moved at a fast pace and it seems like Delhi Airport Metro Express (P) Ltd will be ready to start check-in by June 1. A final review will take place on May 30," said a senior ministry official.
The metro line became operational on February 23 against the original plan of having it functional before the Commonwealth Games in October 2010. Check-in has also missed several deadlines, the last one set for May 1.
Airlines will start their operational readiness and airport transfer trials by Wednesday. Sources said that Air India will be the first to conduct trials while other airlines would join in as and when they had sufficient staff.
