Its time for the Madurai people to celebrate since the operation of international flights from Madurai expected to start with in three or four months. Mr.P.Chidambaram – Union Home Minister inaugurated the new terminal building which are constructed at a cost of 129 crores.
In the past few years a lot of travelers from this region have increased which made the government to focus on making it as an international airport. It is believed that Madurai will have direct flights flying to Malaysia, Singapore, Srilanka, Dubai and many more to add to this list.
The Madurai airport is quickly working on the infrastructure required to raise its standards to handle international flights. Mr.P.Chidambaram also said that there are a lot of travelers to Malaysia, Singapore and Dubai from Trichy and Chennai, hence this Madurai international airport will be a boon for them. He also insisted that more flights should be operated from Madurai to New Delhi, Mumbai and Kolkata.
It is believed that a lot of international airlines are showing interest to fly from Madurai. Mr.Praful Patel – Civil Aviation Minister, said that they are working on to make Madurai airport International sooner than expected. Now, Madurai people has another reason to rejoice!.
after madurai airport got international aiport standards on 12th september 2010, AAI people told that customs, immigration facilities and direct flight service to global destinations will be operated within three to four months. as of now its more than three months. so can we expect the madurai having international flights services to global destinations after 12th january 2010 (opening date of madurai international airport - 12th september, 2010). pls. start the international flight services and feel the good benefit as well.
Its been more than 5 months but still the international operation has not yet started. It will really help many thousand people of southern tamil nadu for easy reach to their destination beyond madurai. Please start this operation as soon as possible.
when madurai airport will be get international status...
The politicians are playing with the public saying that IA standard got for madurai .They promised with in three or four months International Flights will be operated. But as of now no news about that. We are very near to 12th Sep 2011. It is not going to happen. From 12th Sep 2010 now around more than 7 months passed.
No one saying about status of Madurai International Airport. I have doubt it will be a "dream".
My Dears, Chidamparam and Alagiri are liers, we shouldn't believe them, because Alagiri said that there are couple of factories will be operated from Melur area, but until now nothing progressed.
both stupids are cheaters... let them go to hell soon.
Hope "amma" will look into this matter, while "annan" forgot about this~ any more update guys??
Tamilnadu Politicians nolike the name go to other party and they will be break even as it is good planing either Amma or Annan same.
please quicly international service.helpfull for southtamilnadu people.sivaganga ramnad nagarkovil thirunelveli madurai very usefull
I spoke to a customs officer and he says they are yet to plan customs counter at Madurai airport! DMK would not have lost so miserably if they would have inaugurated an International flight and the new block of Rajaji hospital. They were busy with other things like Kattai panchayathu and land grabbing. I don't think these guys will realize their mistakes. Again, they will start fooling people with Tamil and anti brahmin policies. Hey man, Brahmins have left Tamilnadu long time ago! So don't yell, try something constructive!
