Srinagar Airport upgrade from April 6 may 'affect tourist influx'

Srinagar airport operations will be restricted to 8 am-5 pm daily from April 6 due to Indian Air Force runway upgrades. This move, potentially lasting through summer, is expected to disrupt tourist arrivals and business events. While over 30 flights will still operate daily, industry stakeholders fear reduced frequency and increased airfares will deter visitors.
