Thus, if a charter service, for example, from Jaipur to Delhi would cost you Rs1.2 to Rs1.5 lakhs earlier, it would now cost you only around Rs60,000 to Rs70,000. “The parking charges are very less in these mini-metros and the air traffic rules are relaxed, unlike in Mumbai,” says Tongia.
For instance, the Ojhar airbase in Nashik has reduced its charges of Rs6,000 per landing to Rs50 to encourage PCOs to use their airbase. Cashing on this trend, Marsman Limited is soon going to start its operations from Nashik and Juhu.
They will operate flights from Nashik to all places like Solapur, Kolhapur, Indore, Bhopal, Dhule, Aurangabad and other small towns. “The flight will be operated at a very nominal cost, which will be affordable for common people,” said TM Verma, CEO, Marsman Ltd.
“Thus, three passengers could travel from Nashik to Juhu for around Rs10,000 to 12,000. The PCO has bought one Cessna 172 and will be soon acquiring three more aircrafts,” said Captain Mihir Bhagwati, director, My Planes, who is helping Marsman procure the aircrafts.
