The air services from Goa to Dubai that were discontinued abruptly in the recent past are expected to be resumed in the next 10 days, with the Air India authorities working out their schedule.
The station manager of National Aviation Company of India Ltd, which now operates under the brand name of Air India following the amalgamation of Air India and Indian Airlines, Mr Anil Kaul said that the flight would be operated twice a week.
He said that besides working out the schedule, the authorities have to complete some other formalities such as landing permission, etc. He also said the Air India would operate an Airbus 320 service on the sector, adding that once the formalities were completed the services would resume.
The national career was operating three services to the Gulf region including Sharjah, Dubai and Kuwait, which has sizable number of Goans in the region and who preferred to take direct flight to and from their homeland from the places where they work. While services to Dubai and Sharjah were discontinued, but to Kuwait is still operational.
The service to Sharjah was unlikely to be resumed as it was just half an hour’s drive from Dubai, but there was possibility of increasing the frequency of flights to Dubai.
