At Pune international airport, a taste of local street food

Pune: Soon, fliers waiting at Pune airport will get to taste the flavours of local street food, that too at an affordable rate.
Pune airport authorities are looking for private firms which will set up a vada pav stall and a bhel puri counter at the check-in area inside the terminal building. They are also planning to open a ‘low cost’ counter where tea, coffee and water will be sold.
The Airports Authority of India (AAI) has floated the tender notice for setting up these outlets and hopes that these will be operational by November 2018.

This decision to open multiple pocket-friendly food and beverage outlets inside the airport terminal will surely make passengers happy, as they have often complained about the exorbitant prices of food items sold there.

Airport officials said private players will be provided a four square metre space to set up each of the counters – one for vada pav, one for tea, coffee and water, and one for bhel puri. They will have to pay a monthly fee of Rs 9,000 to the AAI, apart from a rent of Rs 2,100 per month.
