In a significant appeal to improve passenger experiences, Tamil Nadu Health Minister Ma Subramanian has called upon the Union Civil Aviation Ministry to enable Airbus aircraft operations on key domestic routes, including Madurai and Tuticorin.
Subramanian highlighted that current ATR planes cause discomfort due to limited seating on shuttle buses that ferry passengers to distant parked aircraft at Chennai airport.
