Nowadays we all know that people have less time. Everyone wants to save as much time as possible, whether it is time for travelling or completing a long task in a jiffy. This is the reason why people now take flights instead of trains for comfortable travel and to save time. However, before travelling by air, it is very important to know what you have to do here and what not.
Often you must have noticed that whenever we travel by air, boarding takes place earlier and it takes a lot of time to take off. Although this has become part of our routine, have you ever wondered why this happens? People also ask this question on the internet, but hardly anyone knows the correct answer. Let us talk about this today.
Flights save us a lot of travel time and they can end a journey of several days in a matter of hours. However, there are some things related to these, which sometimes become a cause of irritation. For example, the time taken during boarding or the delay in flight after boarding. Many times, sitting in the aircraft lasts for half an hour to 40 minutes and the passengers become restless. The purpose behind boarding earlier is that the security and other things are done on time so that the flying time of the plane is not affected. To know the reason behind this, we talked to Harsh Vardhan, Chairman of Star Air Consulting and he gave some reasons for this.
According to aviation expert Harsh Vardhan, many times there is a delay in closing the aircraft gate after boarding. Unless the pilot gets permission from the area control centre to take off the plane, he cannot fly the plane. Apart from this, sometimes some creature is seen in the aircraft, due to this also there is a delay.
Many times the flight even stops on the runway because the pilot is unable to get navigation-related clearance and has to stop the aircraft. Generally, unless there is a major fault in the aircraft, efforts are made to fly it on time.
