National carrier Air India plans to directly connect the temple town of Khajuraho in Madhya Pradesh with a daily flight from New Delhi, starting October.
At present, the airline operates services to the destination, which is popular with international tourists, via Varanasi and Agra, three times a week.
The return flight will arrive at Khajuraho from Varanasi from where it will depart for New Delhi.
“We will be rescheduling the existing Khajuraho flight from October 27 (the beginning of the airlines’ winter schedule) by operating it directly from New Delhi and then to Varanasi” according to Air India spokesperson Dhananjay Kumar.
