@CMOTamilnadu @UpdatesChennai @updates_tn @UpdatesMadurai @UpdatesTanjore @SalemUpdates_ @updatestiruchi @KovaiUpdates @TNGeography @TRBRajaa @CJBAirportNews 🔴 The situation is so bad that most cargo in Kongu region flows through #Bengaluru / #Kochi . Not a single op. airport in Northwest TN 🔴 Lack of connectivity is a major impediment in attracting investments ⛔ #Salem , #Vellore & #Hosur have so much potential but is totally wasted

An Indian airline turned 1 today, but has mere 1 flight from 1 of the top metros of India, #Chennai . In contrast, the 🟠 airline operates 35+ daily ✈️ from BLR. As Vistara started to deliberately reduce flights to #MAA , @AkasaAir was a ray of hope but was not meant to be. Sad.

Summer Schedule is just a few days away. But literally no new additions for #MAA probably for the 1st time in its history. Even suspended routes are yet to be restarted. A whole terminal allotted for TATA group airlines continues to be empty. #Chennai #Aviation
