Now, Fly From Bangalore Airport To Software Hub In 15 Minutes
-
Bengaluru is set to launch a helicopter taxi service from its international airport to Electronics City, helping passengers save hours in commute and beat the city’s bumper to bumper traffic.
The service, to begin in three months with one helicopter by Thumby Aviation, will eventually expand to connect Whitefield, the HAL airport, and some of the 90 odd highrise buildings that have roof top helipads, based on the demand from people.
A 55 km road journey from the airport to Electronics City, home to several technology firms such as Infosys, Wipro and HP, takes over two hours by cab, costing around Rs. 2,500, while the chopper journey would reduce it to 15 minutes. Officials from Bangalore International Airport (BIAL), the airport operator, and Karnataka Industries Minister R V Deshpande expect the commute costs on a chopper for an individual would match air conditioned cab rides.
