Jaipur: People of Rajasthan will be saved from travelling all the way to Delhi for boarding International flights as a number of flight operators are starting operations from Jaipur International Airport (JIA) from October.
JIA, named as one of the best airports in Asia Pacific Region, would soon have direct flights to Japan, Singapore and other countries as its runway has been upgraded to Category-E.
In April, Airport Council International (ACI) had awarded first rank to JIA for catering to two to five Million Passengers Per Annum (MPPA).
The up-gradation of the runway from 2709 to 3410 metres, built at a cost of Rs189 crore, has been readied and it would accommodate planes with a capacity of 350 passengers from October this year.
Besides the runway, 150 metre strips on either side were cleared from dried grass and central inset lights have also been installed on the runway for planes to land or take off easily during foggy weather.
