Hubballi: After a gap of three months, flight services from Hubballi to Bengaluru will start from Monday.
Earlier, more than 10 flights were being operated from Hubballi to various destinations including Bengaluru, Delhi, Mumbai and other cities. All flights were suspended after the lockdown was imposed.
When the government announced that it would allow only 30% of flights to operate, a flight to Kannur in Kerala was started from the Hubballi airport. Now, a service to Bengaluru is all set to resume.
Airport director Pramod Kumar Thakare told TOI, “IndiGo airline has finalised its schedule to start its operation to Bengaluru from Monday.”
“Other airlines are now ready to operate flights from Hubballi, but they are reviewing the situation. There will be more flights from Hubballi airport in August,” he added.
Sources from IndiGo confirmed that the flight to Bengaluru will be operated four days a week on every Sunday, Monday, Wednesday and Friday from July 13. Bookings have already started. The flight will depart Hubballi at 9.25am and reach Bengaluru 10.35am. It will depart from Bengaluru at 7.30am and reach Hubballi at 8.55am.
The IndiGo flight to Kannur, which is operated on every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday, sees an occupancy rate of 10 to 20%. Air traffic is likely to increase in the days to come, said sources.
