IMPHAL: Air connectivity between Silchar and Imphal is set to receive a boost with Alliance Air scheduled to commence flight services on the Imphal–Silchar–Imphal route from November 24, 2026.
The services will operate under the Viability Gap Funding (VGF) Scheme, with flights available twice a week, every Tuesday and Thursday.
The introduction of the new service is expected to improve regional air connectivity and make travel between the two cities more convenient for passengers. It is also seen as a positive step towards strengthening air links between Assam’s Barak Valley and Manipur.
The new flight service is expected to benefit passengers travelling for business, education, healthcare and other purposes, while further improving connectivity across the Northeast.
