Low-cost carrier GO FIRST will restart scheduled direct flights to and from Srinagar to Sharjah by the end of this month. The Wadia-led airline recently received the bilateral rights to operate five flights per week on the Srinagar-Sharjah-Srinagar route.

The Amarnath Yatra is commencing soon and we will make every effort to ensure a hassle-free and delightful travel experience for the pilgrims. We further reaffirm our commitment to the region and will build on our promise of our consumers’ expectations.”
