ready to consider the proposal of the government

A senior official of GoFirst, which provides affordable aviation services in India, said on Thursday that if there is a proposal from the government, the company will consider operating chartered passenger flights to Ukraine.

To facilitate the travel of Indians from Ukraine, the Ministry of Civil Aviation has lifted restrictions on the number of flights that can be operated between the two countries under the air bubble arrangement.

A senior official of GoFirst said during a conversation with the media that if needed, we will consider it (passenger flights to Ukraine). He said that the government has not yet contacted the airline regarding the operation of flights to Ukraine. However, the Ministry of Civil Aviation has lifted the restriction on the number of flights operated between India and Ukraine under the bilateral 'air bubble' agreement, so that Indians can come to their country from the Eastern European country.

Flight services will start on additional demand

At the same time, the Indian Embassy in Kiev said on Wednesday that it is planning to arrange more flights in the near future to meet the additional demand. A statement issued by the Indian Embassy said that Ukrainian International Airlines, Air Arabia, Fly Dubai and Qatar Airways are currently operating from Ukraine. More flights are being planned in the coming time to meet the additional demands.
