Mumbai: Preparations for the consecration of Ayodhya Ram temple are underway. People are entering Ayodhya in large numbers. The number of visitors to Ayodhya is expected to go up following the inauguration of Ram temple in January.

Public transport connectivity is also being increased to develop Ayodhya as an international religious tourist destination. 

After Delhi, air service will start for Ayodhya from Mumbai. Since the opening of Ayodhya Airport, airlines or religious cities have started flights.

IndiGo on Tuesday announced daily direct flights between Mumbai and Ayodhya from January 15, becoming the first airline to link the financial capital to the temple town, which is rapidly developing into a major international pilgrimage center.

The airline, known for aggressively expanding its footprint in new domestic markets, will operate the inaugural flight on the Delhi-Ayodhya sector on December 30 and open its commercial operations in the sector from January 6. It has already announced flights from Ahmedabad to Ayodhya from January 11 and has now linked Mumbai to the Uttar Pradesh town with a daily flight. However, along with hotels, train and flight tickets have also become very expensive. The situation is that there is actually a waiting list of around 80 trains available for the Ayodhya Express train, which is difficult to confirm. 

Talking about flights, Ayodhya airport will be inaugurated on December 30 this year.
