Hyderabad: Union Civil Aviation Minister K Rammohan Naidu on Monday, September 29, inaugurated a Udan Yatri Cafe at Vijayawada airport, where tea is priced at Rs 10 and coffee at Rs 20.

The minister said the cafes were introduced following complaints from passengers about high food prices.

He noted that the first Udan Yatri cafe was opened at Kolkata airport in December 2024 and has since been extended to airports in Chennai, Bhubaneswar, Ahmedabad, Itanagar and Pune. More cafés will be set up across the country in phases.

Rammohan Naidu also said that since the launch of the UDAN (Ude Desh Ka Aam Nagrik) scheme in 2016, more than 630 new routes have been added, improving connectivity between tier-2 and tier-3 cities.
