November 17, 2021: Keeping up with the efforts for the continuous domestic and international
network development of Sri Guru Ram Dass Jee International Airport, Amritsar, a delegation of
Amritsar Vikas Manch (AVM) comprising of its Patron Kulwant Singh Ankhi, Patron Manmohan
Singh, Secretary Yogesh Kamra and Ravreet Singh met with the senior officials of India’s only
Ultra-Low-Cost carrier, Go First at Amritsar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a press release, the patron of AVM Manmohan Singh Brar informed that after the inaugural
launch of six Go First flights from the Airport, our team had a fruitful discussion with the senior
officials of the Go First about expanding connectivity of the airline with more domestic and
international destinations. We thanked Go First for the launch of 3 daily direct flights to Delhi, 2
to Mumbai, 1 daily to Srinagar and expressed happiness that the airline is also providing
convenient one-stop transfer connections to other major destinations in India like Lucknow,
Bagdogra (Siliguri), Guwahati, Hyderabad, Nagpur, Chennai, Varanasi via their connecting hubs
of Delhi and Mumbai.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The launching of Go First services from the airport was another achievement for Amritsar Vikas
Manch and FlyAmritsar Initiative, as they had reached out to the airline in Jan 2021 with detailed
statistics, said Yogesh Kamra. The team of Go First senior officials later visited the Airport and
also met with AVM members. He further added that after the meeting, the airline agreed to launch
services from Amritsar from late March 2021, but the plan had to be delayed due to the 2nd
COVID-19 pandemic wave in the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ravreet Singh, an aviation blogger said that the arrival of GoFirst at the airport, amid the COVID\u000219 pandemic, promises a strong rebound of the domestic traffic at the airport in the upcoming
months. He further added that, the increase in the domestic traffic flow, would eventually also
provide a much-needed boost to the economy and the tourism industry of Amritsar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
