IndiGo has also recently started daily direct flights
between Bengaluru and Agatti, the 88th domestic and 121st overall
destination to join the rapidly growing 6E network.

“We are pleased to announce these three new routes
bolstering our connectivity with the scenic Agatti island in
Lakshadweep, the latest addition to the 6E network,” said Vinay Malhotra,
Head of Global Sales, IndiGo. “These routes
will not only enhance accessibility to/from Kerala and beyond but
with the upcoming summer holiday season, will also significantly
contribute to travel, tourism, and trade in the region. As India’s
leading carrier, we remain committed to delivering on our promise
of providing affordable, on-time, courteous, and hassle-free
travel experiences.”

Known for its stunning beaches, Agatti island is a
6-km long strip of land blessed with aquatic diversity. Home to the
archipelago’s only airstrip, it connects Lakshadweep to the rest
of India and the world.

Agatti is popular amongst those looking to enjoy deep-sea fishing, scuba diving, sailing,
waterskiing and
kayaking.

The island also serves as an ideal base for exploring
the uninhabited isles of Bangaram, Pitti, Thinnakara,
Parali-I and Parali-II, which lie in close proximity.
