This is some good news to the air travelers from Belagavi (IXG) as Star Air, owned by the Sanjay Ghodawat group is opening its Ticket counter and office at the Sambra Airport soon.
Star Air has begun the work on the establishment of its ticket counter at the Belagavi Airport, but still, it is very unclear as to when and which destinations it would commence operations.
The Star Air, the website also has a mention of Belagavi along with Hubballi, Pune, Bengaluru, Tirupati, Trivandrum in it’s booking form.
Already Star Air’s aircraft, a ERJ-145 or Embraer jet which can seat roughly 50 people in a 2+1 configuration have arrived in India and also have been given a Flying nod by DGCA in August.
Under UDAN, Star Air has bagged three routes, namely Hubballi-Pune, Hubballi-Hindon (Delhi) and Hubballi-Tirupati.
So when it will commence operations it will commence from HBX for sure but its initial plan was to make IXG as its hub.
The Winter Schedule of the Flight Operators will be released on October 28, in which there could be some more info on the routes.
The wait could be longer as well, Star Air would like to take the UDAN route from IXG as well and for that, it might want to wait and watch until UDAN 3 is declared.
Sources within the aviation ministry and SAVEIXG group are quite confident that Belagavi will be included in UDAN 3.

Jago Suresh pyare ,our so called MP still sleeping .Hope he wakes up and do somey for Belgaum Airport and work for the people of Belgaum.
When we met Hon union Aviation Minister ( state) Shri Jayayant Sinha some time in Aug, he has assured on record that Belgaum will come under Udan from Oct/15 and regular service to Mumbai will be commenced immediately. Our MPs Shri Suresh Angadi & Shri Prabhakar Kore along with MLAs Shri Abhay Patil and Shri Anil Belnake lead the delegation then and discussed the matter regarding urgency of flight services to Belgaum but since then nothing has happened and now it is the responsibility of our MP to get the flights started under Udan .Rigorous followup is needed at Delhi.

Belgaum Ka Kuch Karo Suresh Uncle And Other MLA Leaders . Hubli Belgaum Se Aage Jaraha Hai
Before open a Hubli airport all passengers are depend only on Belgaum. When Hubli airport working all are moved. Why you know becoz of management. In Hubli one women lady us the director authority in airport is their . She is handling entire airport . In Belgaum fellow who is a manager is looking all updates throw him out he is not doing any work . It’s my humble opinion.
