Ahmedabad is smart Sardar Patel International Airport, handling 250 daily flights and 2,000 passengers per hour is under a cloud.

While the recent death of a passenger in trouble due to the delay in their rush to the hospital has raised questions about the coordination, preparation and quick response agencies operating in the busy airport, an airline has shown International the severe shortage of equipment, even in its Rs 3.1-billion spic-and-span internationally.

An increasing number of visits by birds, an uncontrollable threat to the monkey and the poor security situation in the late earned a bad reputation in the eighth busiest airport in India, which is 75 percent nationally and 25 percent of international traffic .

On June 3, an Estonian woman running on a Goa-Delhi SpiceJet flight vanished in mid-air with the result that the plane had to make an emergency landing in Ahmedabad. But thanks to the mismanagement of the airport, the mother could 42-year, two are not taken to hospital in time led to his death on the road. No doctor or ambulance was available at the airport, despite the pilot informed air traffic control authorities about emergency care 30 minutes before landing. An ambulance from the Airport Authority of India, who did not even have a stethoscope.

Moreover, the securitymen at the gates that have not been informed about the case of wasted 15 precious minutes in the test and to confirm identity.

AI officials, however, that this reporter, which is to improve the management of emergency situations, the airport will soon get two new hi-tech ambulances equipped with all modern medical equipment.

It is hoped that the new technologically advanced ambulances to provide emergency medical care is important for the first few minutes.

In another blow to the image of the airport, Qatar Airways, which operates from the airport wrote to complain IAA malfunctions of the billboard and flight information random arrangement of luggage carts in the goal area the international terminal.

Global Company has also produced interesting sulfur AI, or a lack of chairs, check-in service to control the territory and the system paging port output is ineffective and urgent pest, airline offices is up to a minute terminal model Changi airport in Singapore.

Qatar Airways letter also asks why India’s first underground each other between the international and domestic airports were thrown open to all passengers, even eight months after the new international terminal was fully operational.

A unique feature of the 400 meters “treadmill” that is to make this transition effortless flight. This would also help make the airport international transit hub, which in turn reduces the burden of Delhi and Mumbai airports.

Well, now learned that people come to receive or see their families may have an idea of ​​the R 800-million film at a nominal cost.

Ahmedabad airport spread on a track of 3,600 km 4.55 meters was considered a destination airport, many airlines in recent years. The airport handles five airlines that serve international connections of the Doha Round of the United States, Singapore, Europe, Dubai, and gives.

Etihad Airways and Flydubai companies, cheap Dubai, soon to begin operations at the airport with capacity for 30 aircraft as large as Jumbo, and even the biggest airliner Airbus A-380.

But the solution to problems like bird hits a monkey and a threat to the illegal constructions near the track is a priority. Meat and fish shops and a host of landfills in close proximity to attract winged visitors cause traffic delays. Laser six-shot pistols and dozens of firecrackers have not proved very effective.

The monkeys also free in the airport area and is also seen sitting on the wings of airplanes parked on the roof and the international terminal and departure delays. All this makes air traffic control personnel, is the site of a jeep to scare the monkeys.

Residents around the airport so brazenly invade the land and leave less than 10 meters between their home and place of the track. City officials have shaved some illegal houses, but for reasons known to them, the demolition drive was abruptly abandoned.

The theft of 10 kilos of gold and the arrest of a man with cartridges also speak volumes about the lack of security at the airport. In summary, the RS15 million AAI plans to spend the next five years to optimize the operation of airports. But the Ahmedabad airport expected to handle nine million passengers next year will receive an inch flywheels, if the facility does not match their world-class status. (Source: khaleejtimes)
