Social distancing takes flight at Lohegaon airport as passengers complain oif weekend chaos

PUNE Due to a rush of passengers at Lohegaon airport on the weekend, passengers have complained about the improper traffic management at the entry and exit points of the airport. Passengers also raised the issue of social distancing and being made to walk in the rain.

Sudhir Mehta, a businessman who was at Pune airport on Sunday, said, “In terms of traffic and social distancing, it’s pure chaos.”

“I was travelling from Pune airport at 9.30 am. It took 75 minutes from checking in to security. The number of counters is inadequate and no social distancing is enforced. Airports reflect the ethos of the city and so we should be able to do better,” said Mehta.
