Mysuru: Mysore Airport is getting busier by the day as the occupancy rate of the flights of both incoming and outgoing is going up every day and is touching as much as 80 percent to 90 percent in some of the flights. This has triggered a new interest among airlines keen to operate from the city.
The demand for flights from Mysuru started once Mysuru-Kodagu MP Pratap Simha took interest and saw to it that under the UDAN (Ude Desh Ka Aam Nagarik) scheme the flights were introduced and this saw a healthy rise in the occupancy rate over a period of time, said R. Manjunath, Director, Mysore Airport, speaking to Star of Mysore.
