Indian budget carrier IndiGo announced on Wednesday plans to commence a new direct flight service to Abu Dhabi from the new airport at North Goa in Western India.
The new services are scheduled to be launched from September 02, and will be triweekly, the airline said in a statement.
The new route aims to meet the increasing demand for travel to Goa, popular for its serene beaches, and Middle East.
The new connection will add to the airline’s existing connectivity to Abu Dhabi from several major Indian cities, including Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Kochi, and Hyderabad.
Vinay Malhotra, Head of Global Sales at IndiGo, said the new route is planned to meet the substantial demand in India for travel to the Middle East.
“At IndiGo, we are proactively taking steps to cater to this demand through these new connections,” he said.
Malhotra said with the addition of these flights, IndiGo will fly 52 times a week to Abu Dhabi from 8 cities in India, bringing the UAE even closer.
