Currently, there are 24 domestic flights that are operating from the Chandigarh International Airport connecting it to different parts of the country and two international flights to Dubai and Sharjah had started in September 2016 by Indigo Airlines and Air India Express respectively. It is being said that Pune, Goa, Hyderabad, Leh and Chennai will be soon connected to Chandigarh as the work for commencing the flights for these routes has already begun.

International Flights will be commenced soon

Furthermore, Dutt said that the authority believes that the traffic from Chandigarh itself is quite massive and thus international flights will also be launched soon.
