Usually, many people travel in the flights from Lucknow to Rourkela every day. But in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic, things are different these days, and flights are not as adequately available as they used to be. Covid-19 brought many changes in flight timings and routes. Thus, many places do not have direct flights these days, and Rourkela is one of them. However, flights from Lucknow to Rourkela will be available from January. Tickets are available only for specific days, and timings vary vastly. It is always recommended to book your tickets beforehand, for example, at least two months before you travel. But if you want to go to Rourkela from Lucknow before the direct flights start, you can go to the Bhubaneswar or Ranchi Airport. We recommend going to Ranchi Airport as this is comparatively near to Rourkela. From Ranchi, you can take a bus or train to Rourkela. There are more than 100 weekly flights between Lucknow to Ranchi.
The Ranchi airport is termed the Birsa Munda Airport, and its IATA code is IXR. Birsa Munda was a famous tribal freedom fighter from the region; thus, the government named it after him. This is located in Hinoo which is very near to the city's centre, say 5 to 5.5 KM. It has 2 terminals and 1 runway. Many plans are being executed to develop the airport in the coming years. Despite possessing an international terminal and all of the necessary equipment, Birsa Munda Airport fails to meet some of the most basic standards for international airport status. So, for now, this is only considered as a domestic airport and is believed to be the 35th busiest airport in India.
Rourkela airport is located near the Chhend Colony in the city of Rourkela, of state Odisha. Most of the VIPs, especially the (SEAL) Steel Authority Of India Limited officials, come to this airport. Rourkela Airport is a domestic airport made to handle scheduled operations at its place. Six months ago, the Airports Authority of India planned a taxiway to be ready at RKL airport. It was intended to convert this from Code 2B to Code 3C airport to improve the infrastructural facilities.
Rourkela is located in the northern part of Odisha, and is the third-largest city of Odisha state. It is covered by a wide range of rivers, hills and a lush green environment. Rourkela is a famous city of Odisha, also known as the Steel City Of Odisha. March 3 is considered as Rourkela day every year, and is celebrated by the public in the city. A famous steel plant is situated in Rourkela because the area near Rourkela is rich in iron ore minerals and other prominent mines in the city.
Lucknow airport is situated in the Amausi area of Lucknow city. This airport was constructed in 1986 to ease the travel of Government officials. It was previously known as Amausi Airport. The airport was christened as Chaudhary Charan Singh, named after India's fifth Prime Minister, in 2008. CCS International Airport has ILS CAT IIIB capability on runway 27, which allows for landings in low visibility conditions. As the name suggests, this is an international airport with 3 terminals, and many passengers travel from here. The IATA code for this is LKO, and you can use this code to search for flights on the internet. And the airport is connected to Lucknow by Lucknow metro. The primary airlines are Air India, IndiGo, Go First, and Vistara. Mumbai, Delhi, Bangalore, Hyderabad, and Kolkata are the major cities connected. The airport offers a variety of services and amenities, including lounges, Wi-Fi, luggage storage, charging stations, cafés, trolleys, and retail, among others.
