  1. Congratulations to everyone who took a lot of effort for this cause. Hope soon we will have more connections to other cities as well. Specially connectivity to Mumbai will be more helpful for Belagavi region. We should continue our effort for the same.

  2. Compliments to all those behind the persistent effors for flights to and from IXG. A word of caution. We have to keep the pressure on for inclusion of IXG into UDAAN scheme and for sustained flights to other cities as well.
    Eg. GOI-IXG-DEL-IXG-GOI that can be commercially viable. Congratulations and best wishes again.

  4. First of all Hearty Congratulations to save IXG Team.However the following things are to pointed out.
    1.There is no mention of fights to Mumbai.The load factor to Mumbai is quite appreciable.
    2.It is exactly not known why Belgium Airport has not been included in the UDAN Scheme.The PM Modi has given assurance of including Belgaum in the USA scheme which is only an assurance.God knows when it will materialise.
    3.The starting of Air-India & Alliance is only an eye wash to keep the mouth of Belgaumites shut.
    In all the provisional developments are unsatisfactory and being a Belgaumite I kindly request all the Belgaumite not to be contented.

  5. A very happy news for belgaum and hoping to connect more cities from belgaum.The hbx airport is lucky to have more flight compare to ixg because of udhaan scheme.if ixg comes under udhaan under third list then all flight shift from hubli to bgm as occupancy rate is very less compare to ixg in hbx so have patience.good time is about to come and for forever? ? ?
