My employer has asked me to fly from @DelhiAirport to @BLRAirport and back
I will be tweeting about #NewNormal of flying post during #COVID__19
DEL wears a deserted look with barely 14 flights an hour
Suraj, from Noida has an urgent surgery that needs to be done at Bangalore & has covered himself in a hazmet suit
#aviation during #COVID__19
Segregation is essential to maintain #SocialDistancing
#aviation during #COVID__19
You can buy gloves, masks, sanitisers from here. They are reasonably priced
#aviation during #COVID__19
The scan isn't working. You have to manually push your PNR number. So, wear a pair of gloves
#aviation during #COVID__19
Gate managers at DEL are clueless & airlines are saying they have shortage of forms
So if you don't have the app reach early
#aviation during #COVID__19
It's mostly a branding opportunity for them. So, please carry your own.
#aviation during #COVID__19
Of course liquor shop had to.
But, again please don't crowd the store and wait for your turn.
#aviation during #COVID__19
For pilots ,gloves & masks are mandatory
#aviation during #COVID__19
Only queue up when your seat number is announced.
Thermal checking is also being done by airlines at boarding gates
#aviation during #COVID__19
Like registering with the Seva Sindhu app if flying to Karnataka
Airlines are strict with this & many being denied boarding as they hadn't registered
#aviation during #COVID__19
How safe is that? Wish some alternative arrangement can be worked out
#aviation during #COVID__19
80 are flying including me. With 100 seats empty, there is ample space for #SocialDistancing
Request the cabin crew for a seat if you want distancing.
Be polite & they will happily oblige
#aviation during #COVID__19
With few flights, it's expected that you will not be "bussed" whether you are flying low cost or premium
#aviation during #COVID__19
Lots of procedures have changed in #NewNormal of #aviation
For instance, aircraft needs to be santised after every landing at major airports. So, things will be a little off in the first few days
See you at @BLRAirport
#COVID__19
IndiGo provided with a kit which had a face shield, mask and two sachets of sanitizer
#aviation during #COVID__19
If you are down with some injury, it's advisable to postpone that travel
#aviation during #COVID__19
More than adequate #SocialDistancing is being maintained inside the bus. IndiGo used 3 bus to carry 80 passengers to the terminal
#aviation during #COVID__19
If you have a connecting flight, you can straightaway head to domestic transit
#aviation during #COVID__19
The purpose is to check how well heart is pumping oxygen . It is used to monitor the health of individual
Hope the officials are trained to identify genuine cases
#aviation during #COVID__19
Airlines will kill each other for a 5:30 PM slot from @BLRAirport
But here are the empty check-in counters
The display unit shows multiple flight cancellations
#aviation during #COVID__19
If you are taking a flight, please listen to the crew. Don't queue up.
The aircraft will not leave without you
#aviation during #COVID__19
Whether the airline can keep you safe depends on you
Maintain #SocialDistancing
#aviation during #COVID__19
#Social_Distancing went for a toss as everyone jumped out of their seat, immediately after touchdown at DEL
Seven request of " कृपया हमें बताने तक बैठे रहें" by the crew helped
#COVID__19
No registration of incoming passengers
A thermal screening post manned by a bored person who didn't bother if one walked away 20 metres away
I sincerely hope @ArvindKejriwal has thought it out
#aviation & #COVID__19
However, @MeruCabs has a counter outside the terminal which is functional 24*7 but is costlier.
A 22 km (35 mins) ride cost me Rs 885
#aviation during #COVID__19
Our safety & revival of economy is in our hands
Video shows aircraft parked for more than 2 months on Delhi's runway. Sad sight for an #AvGeek
Hope we beat #COVID__19 soon
Have a safe flight
