Dear All, Indeed, Mrs. Fernandes is doing a fine job. Have been a silent admirer of such good works for the cause of Goa and Goans.One would like to share the knowledge and experience that has been gained over a period of time being involved silently insuch activities. The flight should be routed at least through two destinations in the Gulf e.g Goa/Dubai/Kuwait to make it economically viable to the airlines at the same time to benefit Goan NRIs. There is no doubt, that Kuwait has already three flights direct to Goa from Kuwait by IC. It should be noted that different carriers bring in competition which benefits the traveller. While Air India and IC were flying to Goa there was competition. GWS had worked hard for the Air India flight at that time via Dubai to make it economically viable at the same time to bring in competitive fares wherein a Goan pax fromKuwait stood to save KD40/- per pax. Co-ordinated efforts can definetly reach to positive results beneficial to bo th theparties. We should take the example of Madras/Kerala. We,Goans, form a sizeable community in Kuwait. Understand Air India Express has plans to fly Kuwait/Mangalore. Should this flight go via Goa it wil surely be more economically viable and beneficial to all parties.
