Tiruchy: At a time when private players are gearing up to tap the
potential of the Tiruchy-Chennai sector, the decision by State-owned

domestic service and cited operational restraints as the reason.
Air India Express operated its last flight to Chennai from Tiruchy on February 14, flying with 30 passengers, and will henceforth have services only to Singapore.
