Maritime Energy Heli Air Services Pvt Ltd (MEHAIR) and the Maharashtra Tourism Development Corporation (MTDC) launched the first commercial amphibian aircraft flight from Mumbai to Pawana dam (near Lonavala) on 25 August 2014. MEHAIR's amphibian aircraft will eventually connect Mumbai with multiple state tourist destinations adjacent to four suitable water bodies, which will save time for travellers, given that aircraft take far less time to connect two points as opposed to road or rail journeys.
