A I starts 'Easy Connect' flights from Amritsar to 27 global destinations

Following successful rollout in Varanasi, Easy Connect is now available from Amritsar, bringing travellers across Punjab closer to the world through Air India's hub in Delhi. Now, Punjab connected with 27 global destinations across North America, UK, Europe and Australia with the launch of Air India’s ‘Easy Connect’ hub-and-spoke model at Sri Guru Ram Dass Ji International Airport, Amritsar, on Tuesday. Union Minister of Civil Aviation, Kinjarapu Ram Mohan Naidu who addressed the gathering virtually, said that statistics show that approximately 150,000 passengers travel from Amritsar to Delhi every year to catch international flights. Similarly, about 150,000 passengers arrive in Delhi from abroad and then travel to Amritsar. He said the city will become the international gateway for North India. Major catchment areas including Punjab, Jammu & Kashmir, and Himachal Pradesh will connect through Amritsar. He said of the approximately 30 million Indians living abroad, nearly 10 million are Punjabi and as air connectivity increases, Amritsar’s economy will directly benefit. 

With the launch, two daily ‘Easy Connect’ flights have been operationalised from Amritsar. Passengers travelling on such flights of Air India are required to complete certain pre-departure and transit processes to ensure a seamless journey, including mandatory DigiYatra enrolment for Indian nationals. Indian passport holders connecting internationally on Easy Connect flights are required to enrol in DigiYatra. Bookings for Air India’s Easy Connect flights are available across all channels, including Air India’s website, mobile app, contact centre, and travel agents.
