Pune: Soon, while waiting for your flights at the city's Lohegaon airport, you will get to relax and take off feeling fresh, for a modern spa is all set to go operational in a fortnight's time.
The airport, which handles around 7,700 passengers every day, will also introduce facilities such as an internet browsing centre; child care room; interactive voice response system (IVRS)-based real time passenger enquiry and an additional car rental service.
Speaking to TOI on Friday, Lohegaon airport director P S R K Sudhakar said, "We are waiting for the mandatory clearances from the bureau of civil aviation security (BCAS) for the spa services to go functional. The facility, including the resting cabins, is already in place at the security hold area on the first floor of the new departure lounge."
Tenders are being called for the other four proposed services, which will be outsourced to professional agencies, as is the case with the spa facility, said Sudhakar. "We had called for expression of interest (EOIs) from various agencies involved in spa services. The work has been allotted to one of these agencies," he said.
