AAI mulls air cargo facility at Pune airport

In order to facilitate movement of international cargo from Lohegaon airport, Pune Airports Authority of India (AAI) plans to develop a dedicated air cargo facility. The facility requires 10 acre land in the vicinity of the airport, but there is no government land available at present, reports in­di­cate. In this regard, the AAI chairman VP Agrawal asked the local AAI authorities to take efforts to buy adequate land near the airport for the facility. This, in turn, will offer a better prospect of drawing foreign airlines to start their flight operations from Pune. As of now, the airport handles only two international flights – to Frankfurt and Dubai. The airport caters to only domestic cargo for five to six airlines, for which it has been using a facility built on a 40 sq m space near the main terminal building.
