These new routes are expected to improve travel convenience for passengers, boost the region’s economic growth, and strengthen connectivity across eastern India. The Durgapur Airport, situated in the industrial belt of Paschim Bardhaman district, already offers flights to major cities like Delhi, Ahmedabad, Chennai, Mumbai, Bengaluru, and Hyderabad.

In August, flight operations at Durgapur Airport were temporarily suspended due to waterlogging around the premises and on the approach road from the highway. After a three-day closure, operations at the Kazi Nazrul Islam Airport resumed on August 5, a PTI report stated.
