Bhopal:
Raja Bhoj International Airport has also reached the second position in the Customer Satisfaction Survey.
The new director of the airport, Ramji Awasthi, tried this time to ensure that the airport attained the number one position in the country, for which many facilities were created.
In the opinion of experts, the terminal has been made suitable for passenger convenience.
However, Bhopal’s connectivity still needs to improve compared to other cities in the country.
The brunt of this has to be borne in the customer satisfaction survey.
The aviation department of the government will have to negotiate with the companies and open the way for new flights; only then will the ranking also improve.
Can start from Dubai
International flights can start in Bhopal from the Dubai flight. So far, only flights to Dubai operate from Indore in the state.
This flight can be operated from Bhopal once or twice a week. People of Bhopal go to Dubai either from Indore or from Delhi-Mumbai.
The Bureau team visited the airport
To build an international wing, it is necessary to take permission from the Bureau of Civil Aviation Security.
After inspecting the airport, a bureau team has given in-principle consent to set up a separate international wing here.
The inspection team will prepare its full report. Based on the report, formal permission will be given to the airport authority.
Raja Bhoj Airport was constructed in the year 2011 according to international standards.
