In a major boost to regional air connectivity and economic growth, Adampur Airport in Punjab has now been directly connected to Mumbai, India’s financial capital, through a daily IndiGo Airlines flight. The launch of this new route is being seen as a significant achievement under the Bhagwant Mann-led Punjab government, aimed at strengthening transportation links and opening up new business and tourism opportunities.

Mumbai-Adampur: A Game-Changer for Punjab

Operated by IndiGo (6E), this newly launched route ensures faster, smoother, and seamless travel for passengers between Jalandhar and Mumbai, reducing dependency on longer and less convenient alternatives. The daily connectivity not only brings convenience to frequent flyers but also caters to business travellers, tourists, students, and the Punjabi diaspora with interests in Maharashtra.

Key Districts to Benefit

The direct flight from Mumbai to Adampur is expected to benefit several districts in Punjab, including:

Jalandhar

Hoshiarpur

Kapurthala

Nawanshahr (SBS Nagar

Pathankot (via easy road links)

This development is particularly vital for NRIs and entrepreneurs who frequently travel between Punjab and Mumbai for business, medical care, or family visits.

Regional Connectivity on the Rise

The Airports Authority of India (AAI) has termed this as a “milestone in regional connectivity”, with Adampur now becoming a vital hub for domestic air travel in northern Punjab. It aligns with the broader national goal of UDAN (Ude Desh Ka Aam Nagrik), aimed at boosting air travel in Tier-2 and Tier-3 cities.

Bhagwant Mann Govt's Aviation Push

The new flight is being hailed as another feather in CM Bhagwant Mann’s cap, as his government continues efforts to improve infrastructure and ease of living in Punjab. The move is expected to contribute to job creation, tourism growth, and investment inflow in the region.

With this new air link, Punjab takes another confident step towards integrated development, bridging distance with opportunity.
