MIA up to May 31 will handle 234 weekly air traffic movements (ATMs) in the earlier part of the schedule that ends on October 28.
In the latter part of the schedule, starting from June 1, MIA will handle 242 ATMs each week.
MIA will add Patna as the new sector, while Bengaluru continues to be the most served sector.
A release stated that out of the 234 ATMs, 162 will be domestically operated, and the remaining 72 operated in the international sector.
From June 1, domestic ATMs will touch 176 and international ATMs dip marginally to 66.
A move by IndiGo to start a daily early morning through flight to Patna via Bengaluru is the highlight of this summer schedule.
IndiGo with 148 ATMs will operate a Lion’s share of the 162 domestic movements up to May 31.
This scenario will remain unchanged from June 1 where IndiGo will operate 162 out of 176 domestic movements with Air India making up for the remaining 14 with its daily morning flight to Mumbai.
Bengaluru will remain the most connected domestic destination with 28 weekly flights (four flights per day) up to May 31.
This number will rise to 35 (five flights per day) from June 1 with the airline restoring it’s through flight to Kolkata via Bengaluru.
