Key efforts include ensuring sufficient cabs from additional service providers and collaborating with cab aggregators Ola and Uber to waive cancellation fees for passengers.

Additional Passenger Service Associates have been deployed to assist with transport-related inquiries, and a help desk is now available.

Furthermore, the TGSRTC Pushpak boarding point has been relocated to reduce the walking distance for bus passengers. “Efforts are also underway to display real-time cab availability in the arrivals area, aiding passengers in choosing their preferred transportation,” said an airport spokesperson.

A special patrolling team, in collaboration with the State Police, has been constituted to prevent unauthorised operators from causing inconvenience to passengers.
