TBM Staff - Mumbai Ghodawat Enterprises Pvt Ltd, operating flights under the brand name Star Air has launched its new regional destination Bidar from Bengaluru. The non-stop flight began operations on June 15, 2022, and is its 18th destination.
Famous for its Bidri handicrafts, rich history, and religious significance to the Sikh community, Bidar has transformed itself into a confluence of urban development and cultural heritage.
