Kolkata, Sept <\/strong>4 : Travelers flying out of Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose International Airport now have access to a unique facility: a round-the-clock Parcel and Letter Booking Counter<\/strong> by India Post.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Located on Airport Road, between Gate No. 2\u00bd and VIP Road<\/strong>, the counter – officially called the Kolkata Airport Business Office (PIN 700052)<\/strong> – is positioned right next to the Airport Transit Mail Office. The center comes equipped with an automated mail processing system<\/strong>, ensuring smooth and quick booking for both domestic and international consignments<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Boon for Flyers & Locals<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Whether it\u2019s a time-sensitive document, last-minute gift, urgent business shipment, or even critical medicines<\/strong>, the service offers unmatched convenience. Flyers can dispatch mail just before boarding a flight, while locals can save crucial hours instead of waiting for their neighborhood post office to open the next day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis facility is a blessing for us. Often, printing work for legal documents gets done late in the evening. Earlier, I had to wait until morning to courier them. Now, I can send them the same night,\u201d said Rohit Sinha, a young lawyer from Dum Dum<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another traveler, Priya Das, a tech consultant<\/strong>, added, \u201cI was heading for an early morning international flight and realized I hadn\u2019t sent some important papers. The 24\u00d77 counter saved me a lot of stress.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Official Word<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

An India Post spokesperson explained:
\u201cThe aim is to provide flexibility and reliability. Time-bound articles should not suffer delays just because regular offices are closed.<\/strong> This service is especially designed for urgent needs – be it medicines, documents, or parcels.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
