The Bengaluru-based Air Pegasus has announced plans to link Thiruvananthapuram, Kochi, Kozhikode airports and the upcoming Kannur airport using an ATR aircraft to cater to short haul, underserved, and non-connected sectors.
“We will be trying to simplify travel options by concentrating on South,” managing director of Air Pegasus Shyson Thomas told a press conference on Monday, announcing the launch of daily flights in the Bengaluru-Thiruvananthapuram- Bengaluru sector.
The flight will leave Bengaluru at 6.40 p.m. to reach Thiruvananthapuram at 8.10 p.m. In the return direction, the flight will leave at 8.40 p.m. to reach Bengaluru at 9.25 p.m.
The introductory fare being offered is Rs.1,234 and after this bucket fares will be offered in the range of Rs.2,500 to Rs.3,500.
Initially, food will be served to the flyers.
Ashwin Thomas, Director, said the airline, promoted by Décor Aviation Pvt Ltd., would continue to remain a ‘regional airline of the South’ with the support of smaller ATR. — Special Correspondent
