Boosting tourism and regional growth<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The inclusion of Jaisalmer in IndiGo\u2019s new routes comes as a significant boost for the tourism industry in Rajasthan. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Similarly, Imphal in Manipur will benefit from better access to the rest of the country. The city, known for its cultural heritage and natural beauty, is likely to see higher tourism inflows as flight options expand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let’s take a look at how often IndiGo is set to offer flights to the two cities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
