Synopsis

BPIA will operate in a single shift from 10 am to 6 pm daily as per the guidelines of the Airports Authority of India (AAI) and the Civil Aviation Ministry.

Bhubaneswar: The authorities of the Biju Patnaik International Airport here have framed a Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) for its operation after the lockdown is lifted, officials said. The airport is likely to operate in a single shift after the lockdown is lifted, said BPIA director VV Rao after a meeting with stakeholders here on Thursday.

Asked whether the airport will operate immediately after lifting of the lockdown, Rao said: "We are readying things here and will operate only after getting instructions from the headquarters. We have the SOP in hands now."

He said the BPIA will operate in a single shift from 10 am to 6 pm daily as per the guidelines of the Airports Authority of India (AAI) and the Civil Aviation Ministry. Rao said the airport will handle 16 flights with two flights per hour.

The director said special guidelines have been made for the management of the airport keeping an eye on the COVID-19 preventive measures for passengers as well as the airport staff including CISF personnel.

There will be more washbasins in the airport for washing of hands, Rao said, adding that arrangements have been made for maintaining social distancing in the airport. The airport director, however, said he has no idea on whether social distancing will also be maintained inside the aircraft.

As lockdown is in force, the airport is now only handling limited cargo like medical emergency, refuelling and corona related flight operations.

Sources said the BPIA witnesses a footfall of about 10,000 to 11,000 passengers (both arrival and departure) per day.

Replying a question, Rao said the passenger flow at the airport is likely to come down. The capacity of the airport building was 500 persons per hour during the peak and it will come down because of social distancing.

Bhubaneswar: To attract international flights to operate from Bhubaneswar airport, chief minister Naveen Patnaik announced the government’s willingness to reduce VAT on Aviation Turbine Fuel (ATF) to 5% for international flights touching Bhubaneswar. At present, 20% VAT is being charged on ATF by the Odisha Government and thus, a hefty 15% reduction in VAT has been announced on ATF. Speaking at the inauguration of the new domestic terminal building at Biju Patnaik Airport in Bhubaneswar, the chief minister said, “The state government is willing to reduce VAT on ATF to 5% for international flights touching Bhubaneswar and for all domestic flights from and to Bhubaneswar which touch at least one more airport located within the state”.

The international carriers are Qatar airways for Abu Dhabi, Silk Air for Singapore, Indigo for Bangkok and Fly Dubai for Dubai. All these are direct flights.

On a rough estimate, at least 180 passengers would fly to Bangkok every day and 150 passengers each to Dubai and Singapore would fly from Bhubaneswar.

Another Vijaywada-based regional carrier Air Costa has also approached the airports authority to run its flight from Bhubaneswar. Air Costa, the first regional is suitable for short-haul regional connectivity, is most likely to fly from Bhubaneswar to Chennai and Bangalore via Vizag
