Happy to see another airport in our state. It does not depend how the airport is and how big it should have. We have to appreciate how something better than nothing. If its small than passengers are lucky as well as they are going to save time.

Nice to have airport in inner part of Chattisgarh but i am giving 2 star because I have to wait for almost 45 minutes after the landing there is no pullover belt for luggage airport crew is pulling the luggage with hand and just keeping in the floor but time is very important for everyone from Bilaspur i have to go to Raipur from there but I lost almost 45 minutes and after getting luggage it is almost 1 hour delay but not delay in Flight timing

there are a lot of students/ employees travelling to metro cities, it would be great if they plan for atleast 3 fight a week from bilaspur aiport to cities like Bangalore, hyderabad, chennai, kolkata. Please consider the fact that we need to travel to raipur instead it will save lot of time if we have flights in our neibourhood..

It's a very good initiative by Chhattisgarh Government to make a airport in Bilaspur. It helps people to get to different places from our hometown easily. I really loved the airport. It just lack some facilities which can be taken into account like approach road fixation and Ambience can be made better. Thanks to government of Chhattisgarh and AAI to make it a possibility of getting an Airport in Bilaspur true. I truly appreciate it. Do you know CG government gives 36 passenger airfare for every flight to Alliance air for just making the flights possible for us.

Good that Airport facility started in Bilaspur. Although airport is small but hope to see the development soon. Thanks to the people who battled for this great cause consistently and put a long demonstration asking the government to start the Bilasa airport. Kudos.

One of the less crowded Airport in India, no need to go much earlier. Small and nice. One of best staff. All are very humble and polite. Please follow the rules for any inconvenience. If you don't have own vehicle to go after airport then there is Prepaid taxi facility but, without vehicle is difficult to go somewhere from airport. Carry enough water and food because there is no shop outside of airport.
