Pune: Regional airline FLY91 will operate additional flights on the Pune-Sindhudurg-Pune route to meet festive travel demand. The flights are scheduled for August 24, 29, 31, and September 5 and 7. Tickets are available on the airline’s website.
“Ganesh Chaturthi is special for our customers, with many traveling to be with family and friends. By adding flights, we aim to offer more flexibility and options during the festive period,” said Manoj Chacko, managing director and CEO of FLY91.
Based in Goa, FLY91 serves eight destinations, focusing on tier-2 and tier-3 cities. In Maharashtra, it connects Pune with Sindhudurg, Jalgaon, and Solapur.
Citizens have welcomed the move. “Getting confirmed train tickets to Konkan during Ganpati is nearly impossible. These extra flights will be a big relief for families like ours who want to reach Sindhudurg quickly and comfortably,” said Shweta Kambli, a Pune resident originally from Malvan.
