To cater to the workers of Bengaluru Airport and other associated businesses around the airport premises, the Bangalore Metropolitan Transport Corporation (BMTC) has introduced non-AC bus services to the airport from various parts of the city.

Speaking to Indianexpress.com, a BMTC official said, “This is a pilot service to the passengers who are working in the airport and the airport passengers who can’t afford the AC bus services. The non-ac bus services will be extended in the coming days after seeing the response to the pilot service.”
