NACIL to restore cancelled Air India Express flights


The National Aviation Company of India Ltd (NACIL) has decided to restore the cancelled 300 Air India Express (AIE) flights from Thiruvananthapuram, Kochi, Kozhikode and Mangalore airports to five Gulf destinations. The airline had announced cancellation of the Air India Express flights from September 7 to October end to Sharjah, Dubai, Abudhabi, Muscat and Kuwait citing shortage of cabin crew and tough regulations of the DGCA following the Mangalore air crash.

The decision had been taken in view of the sentiments expressed by the Chief Minister, V. S. Achuthanandan, and others following the decision to cancel the flights of the budget carrier. The cancellations had also led to widespread protest by the DYFI. DYFI organised protest marches to all AI offices in Kerala and warned of further agitation if the authorities doesn't correct the wrong decision.
