Budget carrier IndiGo has decided to suspend its daily flights between Kolkata and Shillong for eight days, starting from Friday.

Although the airline has not cited the reason for the suspension of flight operations, sources in the Shillong Airport authority said the decision was taken in view of the COVID-19 situation.

“All passengers are hereby informed that M/s Indigo Airlines @IndiGo6E has suspended their #Shillong operations from 23rd April to 30th April 2021,” the airport authority said on Twitter.

The authority also urged passengers to contact the airline for any query on the rescheduling of flights or refund for the tickets.

The airline operates its flights to Shillong only from Kolkata.

IndiGo had resumed its operation on this route in February this year after remaining closed for almost 10 months due to COVID-19.
