Indian airlines will operate 25,007 flights every week to and from 124 airports in their winter schedule starting October 27, according to the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA).

The number of flights is three per cent higher than 24,275 per week from 125 airports in the current summer schedule. In comparison to the 2023 winter schedule, the number of flights has increased by 5.37 per cent. The winter schedule is from October 27, 2024 to March 29, 2025. “Of these 124 airports, Pondicherry airport has been proposed by the scheduled airlines, whereas operations from Pakyong (Sikkim) and Tezpur (Assam) airports will be suspended in the schedule,” the DGCA said.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
