The first commercial flight from Hindon airport (adjacent to an Indian Air Force airbase) commenced on October 11, 2019. This comes long after the airport was inaugurated in March 2019. A nine-seater plane operated by private airline Air Heritage took off to Pithoragarh district in Uttarakhand from the civilian airbase. Going forward, the flight will operate six days a week, except Thursdays. The airline also plans to launch flights to other destinations such as Shimla and Dehradun.
