The Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA)’s directive to SpiceJet to operate only 50% of its flights for eight weeks is likely to have no significant impact on flight services from Kerala as the airlines has only a nominal presence in the State.
It operates two daily international flights, one from the Cochin International Airport and the other from the Calicut International Airport, besides a weekly domestic service from Thiruvananthapuram to Bengaluru.
When contacted, a senior SpiceJet officer said: “we have not received any communication from the headquarters with regard to flight operations. As of now, the flights from Kerala will operate as per schedule in the coming days.”
