1.3. Air Transport

Air transport is the fastest means of movement from one place to the other. It has reduced distances by minimising the travel time. It is very essential for a vast country like India, where distances are large and the terrain and climatic conditions are diverse.

Air services can be further classified into two type’s i.e. (i) domestic air services; and (ii) international services. The domestic air services provide air services by transporting passengers and goods from one part to another part within the same country; whereas international services provide connection between two or more countries.
