Belagavi Airport Inches Closer to Greater Connectivity with Successful Trial Landing of IndiGo Airbus A320 VT-IFL
In a momentous occasion for Belagavi Airport, the much-anticipated direct flight to Delhi might soon become a reality. IndiGo, one of India’s leading airlines, conducted a successful trial landing at the airport today, marking a crucial milestone in the endeavor to connect this bustling city with the nation’s capital. The trial, which involved an IndiGo Airbus A320 A320 VT-IFL aircraft, took the Hyderabad-Belagavi sector, and its seamless landing at Belagavi Airport has raised hopes for enhanced air connectivity.
The skies above Belagavi Airport witnessed a remarkable event at 8:45 in the morning as the IndiGo Airbus A320 flight VT-IFL, flight 6E-7361 hailing from Rajiv Gandhi International Airport in Hyderabad, touched down gracefully at Sambra. The trial landing aimed to assess the airport’s readiness for handling flights on the proposed new route, while also putting the Instrument Landing System (ILS) through its paces.
IndiGo, well-known for its commitment to safety and excellence in service, follows a rigorous policy of conducting trials before inaugurating new routes from airports. With the successful completion of today’s IndiGo Airbus A320 trial, the airline has demonstrated its dedication to ensuring a smooth and secure travel experience for passengers flying to and from Belagavi.
The commencement of a Semi Weekly Direct Delhi flight from Belagavi Airport is now within reach, pending the evaluation of the trial’s results and necessary approvals. This direct link to the capital is anticipated to be a game-changer for the region, opening doors to enhanced business opportunities, tourism, and accessibility for the residents of Belagavi and surrounding areas.

The implications of this milestone go beyond just the Delhi route. The success of today’s trial IndiGo Airbus A320 has sparked speculation that Belagavi Airport might become the gateway to two additional undisclosed destinations. Such developments would undoubtedly cement the airport’s position as a vital hub for the region and further boost economic growth and connectivity.
“We are thrilled with the successful trial landing at Belagavi Airport today,” said a Sujin Sudharshan Station Manager for IndiGo. “Our commitment to expanding our network and connecting more cities aligns perfectly with the potential Belagavi offers. We look forward to contributing to the city’s growth and prosperity.”
Local authorities and residents have expressed their excitement over the prospects of improved connectivity. Belagavi, with its rich cultural heritage, thriving industries, and strategic location, has long awaited this development. The airport’s management has worked diligently to upgrade its facilities, ensuring compliance with international safety standards and enhancing passenger amenities.
The positive results of today’s trial landing have ignited a sense of optimism among Belagavi’s residents and businesses. The day is not far when the skies above this city will be adorned with more frequent flights, connecting it to key destinations across India and potentially beyond.
As the aviation industry prepares to embrace new horizons, Belagavi Airport stands poised to soar to greater heights. The dream of a seamless air travel experience to Delhi is on the verge of becoming a reality, and with it, the promise of more exciting destinations is awaiting discovery. The future looks brighter than ever for Belagavi, as it takes its rightful place on India’s aviation map.
