Hub-centric air travel planned to make airlines commercially viable in Northeast
The Telegraph | Guwahati, Oct. 14:
“A hub-and-spoke model with Guwahati and also Agartala, Imphal and Dibrugarh as hubs and other destinations as spokes should be a more appropriate model. Small aircraft stationed in Guwahati and other hubs could operate early morning (to take advantage of early daybreak in the region) and bring travellers to Guwahati/Agartala and shift into bigger aircraft to travel further to Delhi, Calcutta and Mumbai, among others.
“The transit time should not be more than 30-40 minutes in the morning and also the evening so that travellers are able to reach destinations outside the region by 10am to 10.30am and return the same day if possible. At least for Delhi and Calcutta, this model needs to be in place,” the report said.
