AN-32 Kargil courier service to resume operations from Jan 22

The air courier service from Kargil to Jammu will resume its operations from January 22 to facilitate the movement of people during the winter months.

The administration of the Union Territory of Ladakh has taken an initiative to operate subsidized plane and helicopter service from Ladakh during winters when roads in the entire region remain cut off from the rest of the country.

The Air Force will commence AN-32 courier service from Kargil to Jammu and back from January 22.

“The first flight of Kargil courier service is scheduled on January 22 from Kargil to Jammu and from Jammu to Kargil, subject to fair weather,” a senior official said.

“Passengers may book their online tickets, from the comfort of their homes, through online mode”, he said.
