Airways as a mode of transport is gaining popularity in India due to the following reasons:

-
Improved air connectivity: India's airport infrastructure has seen significant investment in recent years, with both new airport construction and airport renovations. Smaller communities and villages now have easier access to air travel because of increased air connections across the nation.
-
