Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched its first-ever seaplane services in Gujarat Sabarmati Riverfront in Ahmedabad and the Statue of Unity in Kevadia on Saturday with an aim at revolutionising the country’s regional connectivity. Let’s know more about its route, fare and ticket availability:

SpiceJet will be operating two daily flights on the Ahmedabad-Kevadia route from October 31.

The all-inclusive one-way fares start from Rs. 1500 under the UDAN scheme.

The seaplane service will reduce the travel time to about half an hour. 

15-seater Twin Otter 300 Aircraft

SpiceJet will use a 15-seater Twin Otter 300 aircraft for these flights. One of the most-widely used aircraft the world over, the Twin Otter 300 is also one of the most versatile and safe aircraft.
