SpiceJet presently operates daily flights between Mumbai and Porbandar. In the past, Porbandar was connected to Ahmedabad by TruJet, but due to financial problems of the airline, it has suspended the route. So now, Porbandar is a monopoly station of SpiceJet with flights to two of India’s biggest cities.
