Govt identifies 40 cities to link hub airports

Newspoint
New Delhi: India has identified 40 cities where air passengers would be able to benefit from liberalised airport immigration and cargo-screening rules, making it easier for them to travel overseas besides enabling faster cargo clearance, civil aviation secretary Samir Sinha said Tuesday.

"We have identified 40 such cities, where there is robust international travel demand, to be developed as spokes under the hub-and-spoke model," he said. "This will make international air travel convenient for flyers from these cities and will also lead to an increase in demand."
