Travellers flying to Kerala have some important news waiting for them. The Kochi airport is going to shut down from November 20, 2019, to March 28, 2020, for eight hours every day during the day. The flight operations will hence be regulated at the Kochi airport from 10 AM to 6 AM, and this is happening due to the mandatory runway re-carpeting work that takes place every 10 years.
About 35 domestic flights would get rescheduled; however, it has been reported that this move will not affect international flights.
It is expected that the Kochi airport shutdown during tourist season is going to cause a lot of trouble for flyers, as flight prices could now go up.
There is now a proposal that the affected flights could get diverted to the Calicut and Kannur airports. Last year in August, the Calicut airport handled additional flights due to the Kerala floods, for both domestic and international flights.
