Centre to restart seaplane services by October: Two routes planned initially with simplified guidelines, says aviation minister Naidu

Union Civil Aviation Minister Ram Mohan Naidu announced the revival of seaplane services in India, expected to commence by October on at least two routes. Simplified guidelines aim to encourage operations in areas like Andaman & Nicobar, Kerala, or Andhra Pradesh. The service, potentially extending to Odisha’s Chilika Lake, requires minimal water depth and landing space.
