Kolkata: After the initial knee reaction to Omicron’s variants who witnessed a large scale cancellation of international flight tickets, dust had settled and various flights operated at the capacity level close to almost all sectors other than other Singapore recording bookings through a new Christmas period.
According to airlines, flights to and from Dubai operate at almost full capacity.
Emirates, Fly Dubai and Indigo officials said bookings were 80% -90% until December to mid-January.
So, whether weekly flights alone between Kolkata and London and flights twice to Bangkok and return.
“The initial wave of omikron has subsided and sitting which has fallen empty everything has been filled out London and Kolkata in the last week of November before demanding soaring again.
The remaining three flights in December have a 90% load.
Bangkok flight Airlines also have reservations.
The prime flight on Wednesday only has some of the remaining business class seats.
The second flight on Sunday also has 90% ordering.
Singapore Airlines, who have daily services, seems to be in the sticky goal with a bad burden on the flight out and entered when tourists alert travel to countries that have closed early and open very frightened that they can be trapped in the case.
The government has returned more stringent control.
Travel agencies say Singapore is an exception but people have made peace with the fact that Covid is here to stay and plan to travel between waves.
“There are several reports that the third wave can come in February-March.
So people want to fully use this window and make a vacation before they dismantle,” said the Indian Travel Agency Association (East) Manav Soni.
The Federation Travel Agency of the Indian Chair (East) Anil Punjabi felt a part of travelers still in waiting and watching modes when countries introduce new Covid test norms during the day.
“Is there a uniform norm, the trip will be easier and more people will travel,” he said.
Kolkata Airport continued to witness the growth of traffic with 13.6 lakh traveling to 9,942 flights, up from 12.5 lakh passengers at 9,404 flights.
December will be more busy with more flight operators.
In fact, traffic growth causes concerns over a long queue.
“Between 6 and 11 in the morning, the waiting time at the entrance is now 7-10 minutes while on security checks is 20-25 minutes.
The longer waiting time, it’s increasingly difficult to maintain the norms of distance,” airline officials said.
Representatives of the Airlines operator committee said the reduction in waiting time could occur only when security checks were accelerated through the spread of more labor and machinery.
