SpiceJet to resume flights to Hubballi on January 16

Hubballi: SpiceJet will resume flying to Hubballi on January 16, according to sources. With the old runway at the airport repaired and strengthened, other private airlines are set to follow suit in the next couple of months, improving air connectivity to Hubballi.

SpiceJet, which had daily services to Bengaluru and Delhi via Mumbai from Hubballi, suspended its operations in August, 2014, as the works on airport development at a cost of Rs 140 crore had started then. Now, the old runway has been strengthened to facilitate operation of small planes with 70-80 seats.


The resumption of flights will bring a huge relief to businessmen, officials and corporate executives among others who were put to great inconvenience in the past five months. The resumption of flight services to Hubballi would also give a further boost to development of business activities in this region, industry leaders said.
