Vistara support options for Kerala Floods Relief

Every one of us at Vistara feels deeply for all those impacted by the floods in Kerala. Kochi airport (COK) suspended operations due to flooding, and several of our Kochi team members have also had their homes flooded and had to move to shelters. We are truly saddened by the situation and by the loss suffered by so many.

We moved our Kochi operations fully to Thiruvananthapuram (TRV) on August 16, after Kochi airport suspended operations, with fares to and from TRV voluntarily capped at Rs. 10, 000 for Delhi (DEL) and Rs. 7, 500 for Chennai (MAA) from the first flight itself on August 16. Our operations will continue to TRV at least until (and including) August 26.

We have been approached by various NGOs, charities, and other organizations to carry relief supplies to TRV on our flights to TRV from Delhi and Chennai. We are partnering with Charities Aid Foundation (CAF), India to carry relief material from Corporates and accredited NGOs. CAF will liaise with us to coordinate such shipments and can be reached at contact@cafindia.org.
