Currently, Alliance Air operates flights between the two cities
Goa is emerging as the ‘go to’ place for a lot of Mysureans and this is reflected in the originating air passenger traffic.
So much so that buoyed by the demand for flight seats the authorities are scouting for airline operators to operate a second flight on the Mysuru-Goa sector.
This is not a post-COVID demand for travel but has been visible ever since the flight from Mysuru to Goa was launched more than two years ago. “The rush is such that lot of tourists and passengers who fly out of Mysuru to Goa find it difficult to find return tickets and hence fly to Bengaluru and then make the road journey to Mysuru,” said Mysuru airport director R. Manjunath.
