Jaipur: The Jaipur airport slips to 89th position in the Airport Service Quality (ASQ) survey done by Airport Council International (ACI) for fourth quarter (October 2019 to December 2019). In the third quarter, Jaipur airport was at 63th position.
The constant increase of passengers, construction works have led to the degradation in the facilities which resulted in the slide of ranking.
In 2017, Jaipur airport ranked number 1 in the ASQ survey but with the constant increase in passengers and increase in frequency of the flights the service has badly affected in past three years.
TOI got the copy of the survey released on Thursday evening.
“The survey is done once in every three months to check the quality of services given to the passengers at the airports across the country. The results are really shocking for us,” said a senior officer of airport authority of India, Jaipur on the condition of anonymity.
Jaipur Airport was voted the number 1 airport in the world in the 2017 survey in the 2.5 million passengers per year. “Till December 2019, Jaipur airport had handled nearly 4.75 lakh passengers,” said an officer.
