The comprehensive trial at the T4 terminal reflects the airport's commitment to ensuring a smooth and efficient transition as it gears up to handle the heightened activity associated with domestic air travel.

As the aviation industry adapts to evolving circumstances, meticulous preparations such as these trials play a pivotal role in mitigating potential challenges and facilitating a seamless travel experience for passengers. The successful trial at Chennai Airport's T4 terminal sets the stage for the anticipated resurgence of domestic air travel from November 15 onwards.
