New Delhi March 15 (IANS) Budget passenger carrier SpiceJet on Thursday said it will shift 22 flights serving seven domestic sectors of Cochin Ahmedabad Patna Pune Goa Surat and Gorakhpur from Terminal 1 (T1) of the Indira Gandhi International (IGI) airport to Terminal 2 (T2) with effect from March 25.

According to the low-cost public carrier arrangements have been made for regular bus service between the terminals for passengers -- for use by transit flyers as well as those who might come to the wrong terminal for their flight -- in order to ensure smooth and seamless operations and minimal inconvenience to its customers.

"All communication mediums have been activated to keep the passengers travelling from T2 informed about the change of terminal " it added.
