Pawan Hans said, “It will be a twenty-minute morning flight between the two destinations. The chopper will take off from Shimla at 8.00 am and reach Chandigarh at 8.20 am. For passengers planning their journey from Chandigarh to Shimla, the flight will take off at 9.00 am from Chandigarh airport and reach Shimla at 9.20 am.”
