Indore: For those travelling to Mumbai frequently by air, here is good news. Low cost airline IndiGo is starting a new flight from Indore to Mumbai. The airline is expected to start operations on the route from December 20.
At present, there are four flights that are operational from Indore to Mumbai. Three of them are run by JetLite, while Indian operates a single flight to the commercial capital of the country.
However, travel experts claim that inconvenient schedules of the existing flights can benefit IndiGo. The air travellers had often been complaining about delayed Indian flights which used to leave them with only option of opting for low cost JetLite flights. The new IndiGo flight would operate on Kolkata-Raipur-Indore-Mumbai route.
At present, the low cost airliner is operating on two routes; one from Indore to Bangalore via Nagpur and second from Indore to Srinagar via Delhi. All the operational and the prospective ones are daily flights.
Significantly, one of the prominent airliners Kingfisher had scarped Indore operations due to financial constraints, leaving plenty of room for other airliners to step in.
Another low cost airliner SpiceJet has already stepped into the air space of Madhya Pradesh in October last. With prominent airliners facing cost constraints, travel experts see plenty of scope for low cost airliner in tier II cities like Indore.
