Ahmedabad-London direct flight takes off

Ahmedabad: The first direct flight from here to London took off on Tuesday with 226 passengers on board.

Darshin Patel, one of the first passengers to check in for the Jet Airways' flight at the Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel international airport, said: "This is very beneficial because of its timing, as we are scheduled to reach Heathrow Airport by 19.05 hours London time. Passengers from Gujarat also do not have to go to Mumbai for a transit flight." The flight uses a special aircraft configured for international operations with 30 seats in the premier class and 196 in the economy class.

The passengers were thrilled at the Gujarati cuisine during the flight. — PTI
