Aizawl-Guwahati sectors; Rs. 3699 for the Kolkata-Silchar and Rs. 4188 for
Silchar-Guwahati sectors; Rs. 3210 for the Kolkata-Gorakhpur and Rs. 3335 for

The new schedule will also include additional frequencies with a direct flight on its
existing routes of Kolkata-Bagdogra and Kolkata-Guwahati.
Chief Minister Sarbananda Sonowal thanked SpiceJet for enhancing its
air frequency to Assam and other North Eastern States by starting new daily flight
sorties connecting North East with other parts of the country. Chief Minister Sonowal
in expressing his gratitude, shot off a message to the Chairman and Managing Director,
SpiceJet Ajay Singh and said, “Your decision to enhance air connectivity between North
East and other parts of the country will serve as a fillip to the tourism potential of
Assam and other North Eastern States”.
Shilpa Bhatia, Sr. VP, Commercial, SpiceJet, said, “Enhancing the
country’s regional connectivity has always been a prime focus for SpiceJet. And with
the new aviation policy in place, there is an added encouragement to enter the
underserved markets.”
“North-East, despite being a crucial tourist locale, has been deprived of good air
connectivity. Hence, our new schedule lays special attention on this region, connecting
the major hub-points of the seven sister states. And we look forward to further
strengthen our presence in this market in the near future.” she added.
