The ministry of civil aviation has allocated flight rights between Srinagar and Sharjah five times a week to Go First airlines thus paving the way for the resumption of direct flights between Srinagar and Sharjah.
The flights were suspended owing to “unknown reasons” in January. However, the flights are being again resumed in the coming weeks. Officials later said that flights were suspended as they didn’t have the requisite bilateral rights.
J&K’s Lt Governor Manoj Sinha in a tweet said that the ministry of civil aviation has approved the flights.
