Guwahati: Alliance Air connects Manipur and Assam starting November 24, 2026. The airline is launching direct flights between Imphal and Silchar twice a week on Tuesdays and Thursdays. The carrier operates these routes under the Viability Gap Funding scheme.
Flight 9I731 leaves Imphal at 8:35 am and touches down in Silchar at 9:30 am. The return leg, flight 9I732, departs Silchar at 9:55 am and gets back to Imphal by 10:45 am. Alliance Air uses ATR 72 aircraft for these runs. This schedule stays in effect through December 31, 2026, according to Imphal Airport.
The airline also adjusted the timing for its Guwahati to Imphal service. Flight 9I949 now departs Guwahati at 7:05 am and arrives in Imphal at 8:10 am on those same days. These additions aim to fix travel gaps. As noted by officials, the "new Imphal-Silchar route is expected to improve regional air connectivity and offer passengers a direct travel option between the two cities, reducing the need for connecting journeys."
