So far, 7 airports in India feature a UDAN Yatri cafe that offers low-cost and affordable quality food and drinks, with the Vijayawada International Airport in Andhra Pradesh being the latest one to house one of these cafes.
UDAN Yatri Cafes are launched the Government of India to provide quality essentials like food and drinks at affordable rates in airports of India.
The First UDAN Yatri Cafe was launched at Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose International Airport in Kolkata, West Bengal, last year on 27 December 2024.
Earlier this year on 27 February 2025, Chennai Airport, in Tamil Nadu, became the Second airport in India to have the low-cost affordable Udan Yatri Cafe.
Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport in Ahmedabad, Gujarat, became the 3rd airport in India to have the UDAN Yatri Cafe, on 7 March 2025.
On April 28, 2025, the 4th UDAN Yatri Cafe was inaugurated at Pune Airport in Maharashtra, making it the fourth airport in India to have one of these cafes.
The 5th UDAN Yatri Café was launched at Bhubaneswar Airport in Odisha, on 3rd September 2025. The 6th one was launched at the Donyi Polo Airport in Itanagar, Arunachal Pradesh, on 11 September 2025.
And now, during the inauguration of the 7th UDAN Yatri Cafe at Vijayawada Airport, the Minister of Civil Aviation Shri Rammohan Naidu Kinjarapau, announced that more Udan Yatri Cafes would be established at airports across the country in a phased manner.
UDAN means "Ude Desh ka Aam Nagrik", which essentially means "the common citizen of the country flies", which is an Indian Government scheme that aims to make air travel affordable for the masses. The word Yatri means traveller, and the name essentially means Traveller Café or Traveller's Café.
In case you've travelled by the airways, you'd know how expensive food and drinks can be at the airports. So, an initiative such as the UDAN Yatri Cafe is certainly appreciable when they provide quality essentials like food and drinks at affordable prices, thus making things better for the average air travellers or budget travellers.
