On March 30, this year, the airline had started direct flights on the Chennai-Tiruchirappalli-Thiruvananthapuram- Sharjah route.
However, the return flights were skipping Tiruchirappalli thrice a week owing to shortage of manpower in the Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) at the airport here, Air India Marketing Manager, here, T H Radhakrishnan said in a press release here today.
Since the strength of CISF unit had been augmented recently, the airline now has daily flights to Tiruchirappalli, the release said.
