Star Air, the aviation arm of the Sanjay Ghodawat Group, has announced an expansion from Mundra, Gujarat’s bustling port city. Starting April 25, 2026, the airline will operate 38 direct weekly flights and a total of 54 weekly connections, linking Mundra to six key cities across Western and Northern India. With over 17,000 additional seats now available each month, this landmark move stands among the largest boosts to air connectivity and economic growth the region has ever seen.
The expansion sees Mundra directly linked to Mumbai, Hindon (Delhi-NCR), Goa (Mopa), and Surat, offering business and leisure travellers unmatched access and convenience. In addition to the 38 direct weekly flights, Star Air will introduce 16 weekly one-stop connections, strengthening ties with Kolhapur and Bhuj and further supporting the region’s workforce and entrepreneurs.
With an additional 4,104 seats available weekly and 17,000 seats monthly, airline’s expansion is set to drive new growth in business, trade, and tourism throughout Gujarat and beyond. Passengers flying from Mundra will enjoy the comfort of the Embraer E175 fleet featuring both business and economy cabins.
Captain Simran Singh Tiwana, CEO of Star Air, said, “By seamlessly connecting Mundra with leading cities across Northern and Western India, we’re energising trade, business, and opportunity, while ensuring our passengers enjoy unparalleled comfort on every journey. This expansion is about empowering people and industries, and setting a new standard for regional air travel.”
The new flights are expected to provide a vital lifeline for the port’s workforce, logistics experts, business travellers, and residents alike. Fast, reliable air connectivity will significantly reduce travel times, making it easier for companies to operate efficiently, respond swiftly to market demands, and attract new investment into the region. For the people of Kutch, it means better access to educational, healthcare, and employment opportunities across the country.
As passenger demand soars and regional economies flourish, the airline is scaling up operations to meet the moment. The airline’s network now spans 550 weekly flights, having carried nearly 3 million passengers in six years. The airline continues to redefine regional connectivity beyond UDAN, staying true to its mission of “Connecting Real India.”
