IndiGo has just announced an exciting new addition to its flight network: direct flights between Lucknow and Srinagar, set to take off from March 30, 2025. This new route is a game-changer for both leisure and business travelers, promising to cut down travel time, boost tourism, and drive economic growth in both regions.
Vinay Malhotra, Head of Global Sales at IndiGo, shared his excitement about the expansion, saying, “We’re thrilled to connect Lucknow and Srinagar, two cities steeped in history and culture. With this new route, IndiGo now operates over 230 flights from Lucknow, linking it to 17 domestic and 3 international destinations. Srinagar, on the other hand, is now connected to 10 cities across India, with more than 150 weekly departures. Our goal is simple—to keep offering affordable, on-time, and hassle-free travel while building connections that bring people closer together.”
Srinagar, often called “Paradise on Earth,” is a dream destination for travelers, famous for its Dal Lake, Mughal Gardens, and charming houseboats. On the other hand, Lucknow is a treasure trove of history, stunning architecture, and mouthwatering Awadhi cuisine. This new route isn’t just about leisure—it’s also set to boost business travel, with Srinagar being a key economic hub in Jammu and Kashmir and Lucknow growing as a major commercial and educational center in Uttar Pradesh.
The route also holds deep spiritual significance. Lucknow is home to iconic sites like the Bara Imambara, while Srinagar serves as a gateway for pilgrims heading to the Amarnath Yatra and other sacred destinations.
With this new service, IndiGo is once again proving its commitment to making travel more accessible and convenient for passengers across India. Whether you’re planning a holiday, a business trip, or a spiritual journey, this new route is sure to make your travels smoother and more enjoyable.
