HYDERABAD: The decision of airline operators to allow bookings for domestic travel post-April-15 has left many confused. Stranded in various parts of the country many are desperate to return home, but are not sure if the scheduled flights will take off. Most carriers are even offering international travel slots starting May 1.
“I travelled to New Delhi for work and wanted to be home before the lockdown. Though I had tickets for two days, I couldn’t find transport to get to the airport. One of the flights even got cancelled. Now, I see tickets are available April 15 onwards. Though I am very keen on booking it, I am not sure if the lockdown will indeed be called off by then,” said Pulkit P, a businessman from the city.
Also stranded in the national capital is Abhishek Verma, who appealed to the Union government, on Wednesday, to allow his wife to travel to Delhi from Hyderabad on April 15 — when services are expected to resume. “She is alone there,” he wrote.
