Flight operations unaffected

Nedumbassery: The flight operations from here at the Cochin International Airport on Thursday remained unaffected even as the indefinite strike declared by the Oil Sector Officers Association (OSOA) entered the second day .

A senior airport official said that the flight operations from here would not be interrupted for the next four days since the airport company had ensured a stockpile of aviation fuel.

He said flight services would be severely affected if the operations by the oil companies did not resume operations within the next four days. There was a conscious effort among the airlines to reduce the consumption of jet fuel, he said.
