Passengers are planning their Diwali celebrations. Is your operation ready for their journey?
For operators arranging flights to and from India, an unconfirmed parking request or an outdated transfer time can put the rest of the itinerary under pressure.
Before November trips, save this Diwali flight planning checklist:
✅ Permits
Review landing and overflight requirements. Confirm approval status and validity against the latest itinerary.
✅ Slots and parking
Confirm applicable airport slots and parking approval. Identify alternatives if your preferred arrangements are unavailable.
✅ Holiday contacts
Check relevant office schedules and confirm who can handle urgent requests during the festive period.
✅ Ground handling and fuel
Verify service availability, uplift requirements, and confirmed timings with local providers.
✅ Passenger arrangements
Reconfirm transfers, baggage requirements, and catering preferences, including any dietary requests.
✅ Schedule changes
Make sure handlers, fuel providers, and transfer teams receive the same updated ETA.
Every check needs a named owner and a clear confirmation.
