Air connectivity boosts tourism in Mysuru

Mysuru: Augmentation of flights from Mysuru, up from one to seven, in the last six months, has shored up air connectivity to the City of Palaces, surrounding tourist spots and it is expected to give further boost to tourism sector and industries to come up in the region.
 TruJet introduced the Chennai-Mysuru-Chennai flight which is the second flight to Chennai in view of the high originating air passenger traffic to that sector.
With this, Mysuru has two flights to Chennai – a morning and an evening flight – apart from air services to Goa, Hyderabad, Kochi and Bengaluru. Stakeholders are of the opinion that UDAN’s regional connectivity scheme has helped put Mysuru on the air map of India and bring out the latent potential of the air passenger traffic.
The introduction of the first non-UDAN flight is a reinforcement of the confidence of the latent air passenger traffic load which is now being tapped and the air services are here to stay for the long term, according to officials.
 “There is no looking back now as flight operations have gained tremendous traction since last few months and airline operators are convinced of the passenger potential’’, said R Manjunath, Director, Mysuru Airport. He pointed out that the passenger load factor was consistently high, which gave confidence to the airline operators.
