Flights on all three routes — Bengaluru-Kurnool, Visakhapatnam-Kurnool and Chennai-Kurnool — will operate 4 times per week under the Regional Connectivity Scheme (RCS), the release noted.
According to the airlines’ press release, it will strategically enhance regional connectivity in southern India, as Kurnool will be one of three capitals in the state of Andhra Pradesh, as well as the node for the upcoming Hyderabad-Bengaluru Industrial Corridor.
