Vishakhapatnam Airport To Resume Commercial Operations Today
Strategy1 min read

Vishakhapatnam airport, which was battered by cyclone Hudhud on Sunday, will resume commercial operations today, Union Civil Aviation Minister P Ashok Gajapathi Raju said. This testifies that life in the city is now limping back to normalcy with essential supplies and public transportation services getting restored.

Restoring airport operations in the city seems to be of prime importance. The civil aviation minister said, “Our immediate focus is on restoration of the airport. However, there will be some minor inconveniences to the passengers during this process.”

The civil aviation minister has announced several other steps for airport restoration such as: VIP lounge to be temporarily allocated to the physically-challenged and senior citizens, and 19 more flights from various carriers to be facilitated in a month to handle international flights from November.

People can expect the Vishakhaptnam airport to be fully-functional in three months.

We hope that life of people affected from the cyclone will get back on track soon. However, for this interim relief assistance of Rs 1,000 crore, which was announced Prime Minister Modi two-days back, should reach the affected people.
