  • Cochin International Airport Limited To Add More Services As Domestic Flight Demand Soars

    06 May 2024

    Considering the rise in passenger numbers in the domestic sector, Cochin International Airport Limited (CIAL) has decided to add more services to six new domestic destinations this month from the airport.

    The airport authority will revamp its summer schedule by introducing Kolkata, Varanasi, Chandigarh, Ranchi, Raipur, and Lucknow to its network while improving its connectivity in established sectors. CIAL has rolled out around 60 services, and the total number of weekly services has gone up from 1,330 to 1,628.

    As per the CIAL official, the trend of increasing domestic passenger numbers began last financial year. He stated that previously, the ratio of domestic to international passengers was 45:55. However, there is now a reversal, with domestic passengers accounting for around 55 percent of the total passengers. The CIAL official added, “This fiscal, we expect a growth of around 20 percent in the number of domestic passengers,” reported the Times of India.
