Raipur: The airport authorities have decided to hike the newly entry fee to the newly built swanky Swami Vivekanand Airport terminal building. The visitor entry fee has been increased to Rs 50 from the existing Rs 45.
According to airport officials, from Friday onwards, the entry fee to the airport terminal's visitors' area would be Rs 50. The Rs 5 hike has been proposed to resolve the "change shortage" faced at the counters.
Incidentally, this is the second hike in just over a month as visitors' entry charges were revised at the time of opening of the new terminal building on November 7 last month. When the operations were shifted to the new terminal, the entry fee was raised to Rs 45 from the earlier Rs 30 at the old building.
