Alliance Air, a subsidiary of Air India, resumed its service between Hubballi and Hyderabad International Airport here on Wednesday.
The airlines will operate the flights three days a week (Monday, Wednesday and Friday). Flight 9I 879, a 70-seater ATR 72 600, will take off from Rajiv Gandhi International Airport, Shamshabad at 6.25 am and reach Hubballi at 8 am. In the return journey flight, 9I 880 will take off from Hubballi at 8.25 pm and reach Hyderabad at 9.55 am.
Alliance Air, which had discontinued the flight service owing to the pandemic, has resumed it owing to the huge demand for air connectivity between the two cities.
Based on the demand the Alliance Air is expected to increase the frequency of the flight in future, said Union Parliamentary Affairs Minister Pralhad Joshi, who flagged off the service at Hubballi Airport on Wednesday.
