Plea to IndiGo on flight to Delhi

March 30, 2013 02:53 pm | Updated 02:53 pm IST - VISAKHAPATNAM:

The proposed flight would leave Delhi at 11.30 a.m. and arrive Visakhapatnam at 1.30 p.m.

The proposed flight would leave Delhi at 11.30 a.m. and arrive Visakhapatnam at 1.30 p.m.

IndiGo is planning to introduce a new direct service to Delhi from Visakhapatnam, according to a statement issued by Air Travellers Association (India).

The ATA(I) suggested to the airline to plan the flight at suitable timings. In a letter to the president of IndiGo Airlines, ATA (I) president D. Varada Reddy and advisor GVR Sastry said the arrival and departure timings planned at both Delhi and Vizag were not at all suitable to the commuters.

The proposed flight would leave Delhi at 11.30 a.m. and arrive here at 1.30 p.m. and in the return direction, it would leave Visakhapatnam at 2 p.m. and reach Delhi at 4 p.m.

Mr. Varada Reddy said these timings would result in the passengers losing the day at both directions.

He suggested the timings could be revised for the flight to leave Delhi at 6.30 p.m. and reach Vizag at 8.30 p.m. and in the return direction, it can leave Vizag at 9 p.m. and reach Delhi at 11 p.m.

The ATA (I) representative also appealed to the airline to intimate the days of operation of the new flight.
