IndiGo is taking steps to enhance its flight services in Mangaluru by introducing more daily flights during the week and an extra Saturday service to Bengaluru, starting from September 7.
This strategic move is aimed at improving connectivity between these two cities.
As reported by the Times of India, IndiGo intends to operate these additional flights until October 28, which will result in a notable increase in the daily flight frequency between Mangaluru and Bengaluru. On weekdays and Sundays, travellers can expect five daily flights and six on Saturdays. This expansion underscores IndiGo’s commitment to enhancing passenger services in the region, going beyond its current offering of four daily flights to Bengaluru.
IndiGo is set to reintroduce flight 6E 6858 with a fifth daily flight on the Bengaluru-Mangaluru route. The flight is scheduled to arrive in Mangaluru at 8:35 AM and depart for Bengaluru as flight 6E 5347 at 9:10 AM. This new service will complement the existing flights on this route, which include departures to Patna via Bengaluru at 6:50 AM (6E0255), Kolkata via Bengaluru at 11:35 AM (6E0172), and direct flights to Bengaluru at 4:25 PM and 9:50 PM (6E0388/6E6859).
Furthermore, the addition of the sixth flight to Bengaluru on Saturdays is a result of IndiGo’s restructuring of its Mangaluru-Pune flight schedules. On Tuesday, Thursday, Sunday, and Saturday, flight 6E 294 will arrive in Mangaluru at 5:50 PM and then depart for Pune as flight 6E 298 at 6:35 PM. Specifically on Saturdays, flight 6E 359 will arrive in Mangaluru from Bengaluru at 5:50 PM and subsequently depart for Pune as flight 6E 298 at 6:35 PM.
The adjustments to flight schedules on the Mangaluru-Bengaluru and Mangaluru-Pune routes are done to enhance both international and domestic flight operations.
On weekdays, specifically from Monday to Friday, the total movements will go up from 38 to 40 flights. Similarly, on Saturdays and Sundays, the number of movements will increase from 40 to 42 flights. This expansion is set to provide travellers with improved connectivity and a wider range of options.
In a recent expansion, Indigo expanded its business network with the introduction of direct flight services on the Delhi-Belagavi route, commencing on October 5. Travellers will have the convenience of booking direct flight tickets for this route through the official Indigo website or third-party platforms.
According to the airline, passengers interested in this service can opt for the direct flight departing from Delhi to Belgaum at 3:45 PM, with the return flight from Belgaum to Delhi scheduled for departure at 6:35 PM.
