Star Air Expands Network: Hyderabad, Lucknow to Jharsuguda & Raipur

Mumbai, Dec 11 (PTI) Regional carrier Star Air on Wednesday said it will connect Hyderabad and Lucknow with Jharsuguda and Raipur, starting January 1.

This strategic expansion to these cities brings the total number of destinations operated by the airline to 24, Star Air said.
