The service is being run by AirTaxi India. In the first phase, the company will operate Air Taxi services on the Chandigarh - Hisar route. On January 18, the company will start a flight from Hisar to Dehradun and in the third phase (Jan 23) Chandigarh - Dehradun and Hisar - Dharamsala routes will be introduced. The company also plans to connect Shimla, Kullu and other places in Haryana with the Air Taxi service.

AirTaxi India has a fleet of Tecnam P2006T twin-engine aircrafts. These can seat up to 4 people.

The government's UDAN scheme aims to connect tier 2 and tier 3 cities with larger metros. More than 300 routes are already operational.
