IndiGo flights begin today to four metros, 4 other cities from Hindon
Indigo will be the second frontline airline to operate from the terminal, which uses the runway of Hindon air base, after Air India Express began flight operations in March.
From Sunday, IndiGo will operate 70 weekly departures across eight new destinations, including Bengaluru, Mumbai, Kolkata, Chennai, Patna, Varanasi, Indore, and Ahmedabad. The first Indigo flight to land will be from Bengaluru, followed by daily inbound and outbound services on that route, including a second flight landing at 12.10pm and departing at 1pm.

Daily operations are also scheduled for Patna, Varanasi, Kolkata, and Mumbai. However, return flights on the Mumbai route will not operate on Saturdays. Flights from Ahmedabad will operate daily, but return flights will skip Sundays, except for one additional service exclusively on Sundays. Chennai flights will operate six days a week, excluding Saturdays.
While expansion of routes underscores the rising demand for regional connectivity, it also puts pressure on the limited infrastructure at Hindon Civil Terminal.

Initially designed to handle 300 passengers per hour, the terminal's capacity was stretched to 430 passengers per hour following previous expansions. With IndiGo's launch, officials now expect up to 500 passengers per hour—the terminal's maximum manageable load under current conditions.
To cope with the surge, the Airports Authority of India (AAI) has increased its on-ground staff to 125 and is coordinating closely with airline operators.
A new conveyor belt will soon be added to improve baggage handling and reduce passenger wait times.
Ghaziabad MP Atul Garg will visit the terminal on Sunday with members of the Aerodrome Advisory Committee to review operations and recommend immediate improvements. "Short-term measures will be implemented after our review," Garg said.
He also confirmed a survey of surrounding land has identified nine hectares for long-term expansion, with a report already submitted to the civil aviation ministry.
"I will follow up personally with the minister next week," he added.
The terminal, developed over 42,000 sqm with 22,250 sqm allocated for the building itself, requires at least five more acres for a full expansion.
Beyond IndiGo and Air India Express, the terminal is already servicing 14 destinations under the regional connectivity scheme. Star Air currently operates flights to Nanded (Maharashtra) and Adampur (Punjab), while FlyBig covers routes to Bathinda, Ludhiana, and Kishanganj. Air India Express also connects passengers from Hindon to major cities like Kolkata, Goa, Jaipur, Chennai, Patna, Mumbai, Bhubaneswar, Varanasi, Jammu, and Bengaluru.

Trade deal struck: 15% tariff on EU goods entering US
The European Union and the US agreed on Sunday to a broad-brush trade deal that sets a 15% tariff on most goods, including cars, President Trump announced, at least temporarily bringing an end to months of tense negotiations with a bloc that is the US' single biggest source of imports. Trump said that the EU had agreed to purchase $750 billion of American energy and to increase its investment in the US by more than $600 billion above current levels. He also said that the EU would buy military equipment and that no tariffs would be imposed on some goods. Trump implied that the 50% tariff he had imposed on steel and aluminum globally would remain as is, saying it's a "worldwide thing that stays the way it is. " Other details of the pact were not immediately available. The agreement will "rebalance, but enable trade on both sides," Ursula von der Leyen, the president of the European Commission, the executive arm of the EU, said as she sat next to Trump as the leaders made the announcement. "We made it," Trump said. Though the agreement appears to be a preliminary one that leaves many questions to be resolved, it could bring a measure of calm to one of the world's most important economic relationships and allay fears of an escalating trade war. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Stylish New Mobility Scooters Available for Seniors (Prices May Surprise You) Mobility Scooter | Search Ads Search Now Undo The EU last year accounted for nearly $610 billion of the $3.3 trillion in goods imported by the US. The tariff rate is higher than the 10% tax that Europeans had been angling for, and that Trump applied to British goods. But 15% mirrors the main tariff rate of the US-Japanese trade agreement that was announced last Tuesday, and is lower than the 19 and 20% rates imposed on several Southeast Asian countries. The deal followed weeks of unpredictable talks. Even after that announcement, von Der Leyen stressed the importance of continuing talks and trying to reach a negotiated deal. But the EU also continued working to put the finishing touches on a plan to retaliate against Trump's tariffs, one that could be enacted quickly if needed. Bringing down the tariff on European auto exports was a sticking point for the Europeans, especially Germany, the largest EU economy. European automakers, which sent cars worth 38.5 billion euros ($45bn) to the US last year, have been suffering under the 27.5% tariffs imposed by Trump in April. Pharmaceutical tariffs were another key issue. the US threatened last month that it could raise tariffs on pharma - Europe's largest export to the US - to 200%. Such a high tax would have been crushing for the industry. The govts did not clarify what would happen to tariffs on pharmaceuticals.
