"A relief flight carrying 150 Spsh and EU nationals will take off from Goa International Airport to Madrid tonight," Goa Airport Director Gagan Malik told .

He said that thermal screening of passengers at entry and social distancing will be maintained during check-in at the airport.

"Arrangments have been made for passengers to wait with seats, water and fans before entry to a terminal for check-in as they arrive very early due to obvious reasons," Malik added.
