Meet-and-greet service at Pune airport to help flyers

PUNE: The city airport has started a meet-and-greet service from Wednesday for flyers requiring assistance with their luggage.

“A team of 15 people has been deputed at the airport and flyers availing the service are being charged a sum of Rs200. There are many flyers who need assistance with their luggage and our team is helping them by carrying their luggage in trolleys until they check-in,” said Rajesh Damoradan, general manager (operations) of Chennai-based Global Flight Handling Services Private Limited.

Swapna Srivastava, the business development manager of the company, said that flyers would soon be able to pre-book the service through its online portal expected to start from next week.

“Once the service is booked, our team will stand at the departure or arrival gate with a placard bearing the name of the flyer so that s/he can identify us,” Currently, a flyer can book the service by calling 7094443335. “The service will be of help to those flying alone,” Jamshed Kaizan, a frequent flyer, said.
