Madurai : With uncertainty prevailing over the proposed flight service from Madurai to Colombo by April 14, the dream of the flyers in the southern part of Tamil Nadu to fly to international destinations from the city is likely to get delayed further.
In February, officials of Sri Lankan Airlines and Mihin Lanka Airlines, who had come to Madurai had assured the travel community that efforts are on to commence flight services from Madurai to Colombo by April 14, on the occasion of Tamil New Year's day.
Talking to TOI from Colombo, an official from Sri Lankan Airlines said, "We have already submitted a proposal to our head office in Colombo. The potential of passengers' inflow and outflow, and the complete data about the market are being evaluated by the head office. After the evaluation is over, the flight schedule will be handed over to directorate general of civil aviation. If anything comes out positively, the media will be duly informed before hand."
