International tourists won’t have to fly to Mumbai and then head to Goa in the coming future. According to Goa Chief Minister, Pramod Sawant, the state will soon have international charter flights landing at Goa’s Dabolim International Airport. The Chief Minister announced this at a government function in north Goa district.
The government in Goa had written to the Union Home Ministry recently, seeking permission to resume international charter flights. The Chief Minister said, "When we announce that we are a 100 percent safe vaccinated state, then national and international tourists will come here. We will complete 100 per cent vaccination by October 31.”
He further urged everyone to take the second vaccine.
