SpiceJet has launched daily direct flights from New Delhi to the famous temple town in Maharashtra’s Shirdi district, which is visited by thousands of devotees of Shri Sai Baba every year.
With the launch of daily direct flights, tourists who would otherwise take a rail or road trip to the city can now switch to a more convenient and less time-consuming travel mode, giving a boost to religious tourism to the region.
Additionally, the airline has also launched a new daily direct flight on the Mumbai-Kanpur route, thereby becoming the first airline to connect the country’s financial capital and UP’s commercial capital.
The airline will also operate the first direct flight on the Mumbai-Jaisalmer route starting 29 October and third direct flight on Mumbai-Kolkata route from 1 November.
SpiceJet will be deploying the Boeing 737 on the sectors of Mumbai-Kanpur-Mumbai, Shirdi-Delhi-Shirdi, Mumbai-Jaisalmer-Mumbai and Mumbai-Kolkata-Mumbai routes.
