Trivandrum Airport ends ties with China's 'DragonPass' providing airport lounge access service

Trivandrum Airport ends ties with China's 'DragonPass' providing airport lounge access service

Thiruvananthapuram, May 16 (UNI) The Thiruvananthapuram International Airport (TRV), managed by Adani Group has terminated its partnership with Chinese company 'DragonPass,' a platform providing airport lounge access services.
"Our association with DragonPass, which provided access to airport lounges, has been terminated with immediate effect. DragonPass customers will no longer have access to lounges at Adani-managed airports. This change will have no impact on the airport lounge and travel experience for other customers," a release said.
However, the Adani Group did not mention the reason for ending the partnership with the Chinese firm.
Earlier, the Union Government revoked the security clearance of Turkey-based airport ground handling company 'Celebi Airport Services' on national security grounds.
These measures were taken against both the China and Turkey companies after the two foreign nations supported Pakistan during the recent India-Pak conflict following the Pahalgam terror attack.
