IndiGo revealed its plans on Monday to inaugurate a direct flight linking Bengaluru and Agatti, set to commence on March 31, thereby enriching the air connectivity to Lakshadweep.
This new route to Agatti marks the 88th domestic destination and the 121st overall destination within the extensive IndiGo network.
Scheduled services between Bengaluru and Agatti will kick off from March 31, as stated by the airline in an official announcement.
Utilizing ATR aircraft with approximately 78 seats, IndiGo aims to facilitate seamless travel between these two destinations.
Highlighting the allure of Agatti, IndiGo emphasized its appeal to adventure seekers, citing activities such as deep-sea fishing, scuba diving, sailing, skiing, and kayaking.
