Jaipur: Jaipur Airport will operate four new flights to three popular destinations – Bengaluru, Chennai and Pune from June 1. The airfare for these flights will be cheaper as they will be operated in the night. The airport doesn’t operate flights in the night currently due to the ongoing renovation work. The work is expected to finish by May 31.
The four flights which will operate from June 1 are as follow:
- Bengaluru – Flight 6E-169 at 4 am
- Bengaluru – flight I5-1725, at 12.45 am
- Chennai – Flight 6 E-736 at 10.25pm

Changes in the schedule of two flights will also come into effect from June 1. The flight which takes off at 12 noon for Kuala Lumpur will take off at 10.50pm. The flight for Bangkok will leave at 2.15 am instead of 6 am.
Flight operations had been stopped from the Jaipur International Airport from 10 am to 5 pm ince March 1 as a new taxi track was being developed. The track will be completed by May 31, airport officials said. They added that the taxi track will save 3-5 minutes when flights take off.
The Jaipur Airport is currently operating a total of 61 flights. The number of flights will increase to 65 once the four new ones start operating from June 1. There are currently four flights to Bengaluru, all of them operating in the daytime. The number of flights to the city will increase to six as two new flights will operate in the night. Similarly, the number of flights to Chennai and Pune will increase to three and two respectively.
