Within nine days of its opening, the Surat International Airport commenced domestic flight operations from its newly opened terminal with the arrival of two flights from Delhi and Hyderabad on Monday.
Indigo Airlines operated the initial flights connecting Surat to Delhi and Hyderabad, marking the beginning of a significant chapter in the airport’s operational history. Air connectivity is key for unlocking economic growth potential, as it attracts business investment and human capital.
“The first flight arrived from Delhi with 177 passengers on board and departed back with 161 passengers. Similarly, the second flight arrived from Hyderabad with 180 passengers and departed with almost an equal number of passengers from Surat,” the Airport officials mentioned.
