LUDHIANA: Even because the flight from Ludhiana to Kullu is but to begin (the sooner introduced date being July five), bookings for the flight had already opened early this month. It could also be recalled that the flight to Kullu was once previous scheduled to begin on May 30, and a few travellers who had booked their tickets online had been understood to were given a refund once the flight stood cancelled. Bookings for the same flight — now set to begin on five July — have opened online once more, even though suspense continues to be successful about the actual date the flight would start.

Reputed city-based psychiatrist Dr Ranjive Mahajan had were given his price ticket booked online in the Air Deccan flight from Kullu to Ludhiana via a shuttle company. However, he later got here to grasp the flight had now not but begun running on the route. He stated: “On 15 May, we had booked a price ticket from Kullu to Ludhiana on Air Deccan via a shuttle company. The price ticket was once for nine June, however we found that even though we had the price ticket, the flight was once but to begin. Later, after dealing with problems due to cancellation of price ticket, we booked a taxi from there. I will have to say the airline did refund the price of the 2 tickets.”


Mehtab Chopra of the shuttle company which had booked the tickets for Dr Ranjive stated Air Deccan had opened the bookings previous, even because it didn't have a flight running between Kullu and Ludhiana. He added that a few individuals will have independently booked the tickets online. However, he added that Dr Mahajan were given a refund for his tickets.


Meanwhile, even as Air Deccan is but to get a hold of a date for the beginning of its flight from Delhi to Ludhiana, and then to Kullu and Shimla, one can e-book tickets for the same from five July on its site. The authorities at Sahnewal Airport, alternatively, express doubts if Air Deccan would have the ability to operate the flight on the stated date.


“They have opened the reserving a month in the past, however are but to start out the flight. If they've to start out the flight, they will tell us a minimum of 15 days upfront to get all the important products and services here. But to this point, they haven’t completed that. So, I don’t think they will have the ability to operate the flight in the first week of July,” stated a senior officer at the airport. He added that even though the operator had opened the reserving, it was once refunding the money of customers after reserving tickets. The officer stated he didn't see anything illegal in that practice, even though shoppers had been inconvenienced by way of the uncertainty of flight operations.
