FlyBig, India's newest friendly regional airline, provides connectivity to destinations that were hitherto not accessible by air under the UDAN initiative. This regional airline focuses on connecting tier-2 cities within India. Flybig flies to areas which are worth a serene domestic travel trip.
To provide air connectivity under UDAN, FlyBig airlines completed its first commercial trial flight in the Guwahati - Tezu route on 15 August 2021. With this August, FlyBig airlines completed one year of service at the Tezu Airport and has entered the second year. The airline, on Friday, thanked all its guests, staff, partners, and stakeholders for their support in making this happen.
