As domestic air travelers trending upwards after the COVID pandemic, the Indian Air Force ( IAF) has decided to open up 39 military airports and nine advance landing grounds for civil usage. The move will help to enhance the connectivity to far-flung areas considered as remote for civilian usage but also help to promote tourism.
“Towards the common good envisaged by enhanced regional connectivity, the #IAF has earmarked 39 military airfields and 9 Advance Ldg Grounds for use by civil aircraft. This Joint User Airfield scheme now gives access to areas that were earlier considered remote,” said IAF in a tweet on Tuesday.
