Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, whether his Department has made a recent estimate of future trends in the level of demand for flights to (a) Gujarat and (b) other parts of India; and if he will make a statement.

In deciding whether to operate air services, airlines will, of course, assess demand. The UK through the Department for Transport works with international partners, such as India, to open-up market access and provide airlines with commercial opportunities.
