Go First set to resume Srinagar-Sharjah flight from June-end

IBNS | @home | 21 Jun 2022, 04:21 pm

New Delhi/UNI: Go First on Tuesday said that it will resume scheduled direct flights to and from Srinagar to Sharjah from end of this month.

The airline had started the Srinagar-Sharjah flight on October 23 last year connecting Jammu and Kashmir with the United Arab Emirates (UAE) after 11 years.

Go First will also introduce five additional direct flights to and from Srinagar to Delhi and two additional flights between Leh and Delhi in order to cater to the additional demand from the impending Amarnath Yatra on June 30, a statement from the company said.

With the enhanced connectivity, these new flights will be offering travel options to the pilgrims.

Go First currently operates nine flights daily between Delhi and Srinagar and five flights daily between Delhi and Leh.

CEO at Go First Kaushik Khona said,"Go First is honoured to resume services between Srinagar and Sharjah. The service will improve international connectivity and cater to international travel.

"The Amarnath Yatra is commencing soon and we will make every effort to ensure a hassle-free and delightful travel experience for the pilgrims. We further reaffirm our commitment to the region and will build on our promise of our consumers’ expectations.”

Last year, the Jammu and Kashmir government signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Go First for the transportation of perishable horticulture and agricultural produce to various destinations across the country.

The airlines had also signed a pact with the UAE-based Lulu Group to transport cargo from Srinagar to Sharjah in 2021.
