Indore (Madhya Pradesh): Indore will lose direct air connectivity with three cities — Jodhpur, Udaipur, and Nashik — starting August 1.
Airline company IndiGo is suspending these flights, and had already stopped bookings for them a month ago.
Meanwhile, runway work is ongoing at Indore’s Devi Ahilyabai Holkar Airport. Due to this, night flights between 10:30 PM and 6:30 AM have already been suspended. The runway improvement is expected to finish before the winter season, and more flights may start again at that time.
IndiGo has said that while these three flights are being stopped now, they may return in the winter schedule.
Flights being stopped:
Jodhpur: Flight 6E 7358/7358 (Indore–Jodhpur)
Udaipur: Flight 6E 7424/7438 (Indore–Udaipur)
Nashik: Flight 6E 7155/7109 (Indore–Nashik)
Currently, there is one direct flight each from Indore to Jodhpur, Udaipur, and Nashik. After August 1, these flights will no longer operate, forcing travelers to use road or train routes, or take connecting flights from other cities.
Flights to Jodhpur were available daily, while flights to Udaipur and Nashik operated three days a week. With these flights ending, the total number of flights from Indore Airport will drop below 80.
These three cities were only connected to Madhya Pradesh through Indore Airport. There are no direct flights to Jodhpur, Udaipur, or Nashik from Bhopal, Jabalpur, or Gwalior airports either.
So, with the end of Indore’s connections, travelers will now face longer travel times.
