Akasa Air issues travel advisory ahead of cricket World Cup final

In the run-up to the big-ticket final clash between India and Australia in the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 at Narendra Modi Stadium in Gujarat on Sunday, Akasa Air issued a travel advisory saying that due to airspace closure at Ahmedabad, flights arriving and departing from the city may experience delays.

“Due to airspace closure at Ahmedabad on 19th Nov 2023, between 13:15 hrs and 14:10 hrs on account of the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 finals, flights arriving and departing from Ahmedabad may experience delays,” the airline posted on X.

“Also, in anticipation of heavy road traffic due to fans travelling to the match venue, we recommend that you plan for extra travel time and reach the airport at least 3 hours prior to the departure of your flight,” it said.

Air fares from Hyderabad to Ahmedabad have surged as cricket fans from Hyderabad are traveling to Ahmedabad to watch the 2023 ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup final. The price of tickets has increased to INR 40,000 ($540) on Saturday, compared to the usual INR 6,000-7,000 ($80-$94) fare. Airlines have taken advantage of the high demand and increased flight charges.

“In view of the above, if you choose not to travel due to the above, you may rebook on an alternate available Akasa flight, at no additional cost, for travel within the next 7 days, by calling our Akasa Care Centre on +91 9606 112131,” it added. India and Australia will lock horns in the final of the ICC Cricket World Cup at Ahmedabad’s Narendra Modi Stadium on November 19. India will be looking to lift the trophy for the third time while the Aussies will be looking forward to making it their sixth title win.
