Srinagar Airport Will Have Direct Flights to Sharjah from Oct 23.

In a major move that will reduce the travel time and cost for passengers Srinagar airport will begin direct flights to Sharjah from October 23rd.

Go First’, which was formerly Go Air, will start flights between Srinagar and Sharjah from October 23, cutting both travel time and costs.

‘Go First’ is scheduled to fly directly from Srinagar at 8:25 pm and is expected to land in Dubai at 11:25 pm. The travelers will have to spend just Rs 12,500 for this journey.

On Sunday, October 24, flight G84095 will depart from Sharjah at 00:25 hrs and arrive in Srinagar at 06:20 taking 4 hours and 25 minutes. This is way lesser both in terms of cost and time as air travelers would shell out higher costs even as the flights used to fly between Srinagar and Sharjah via Delhi or Amritsar which would take longer.

Civil Aviation Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia had last month said in Srinagar that international flights will soon resume at the Srinagar International airport, ending the long pending demand of the UT to have direct international connectivity.

He also said that the terminal at the Srinagar airport will be expanded from 25,000 square metre to 63,000 square metre.
