Description

Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated the first phase of Navi Mumbai International Airport (NMIA) marking a significant milestone in India's aviation sector. With the Navi Mumbai airport, Mumbai enters the league of international big cities like London, Paris, New York that are served by more than one airport. The financial capital has waited for years for its second airport and with the Mumbai airport's single operational runway seeing stagnation since 2018. The new airport, India's first fully digital and largest greenfield airport, features a lotus-inspired design, and will eventually handle 90 million passengers annually, creating a major multi-airport system for Mumbai. The first commercial flight is expected to be operational in December 2025. *Initially, the airport will be operational with one runway. #Modi #airport #flight #navimumbai Times Of India (TOI) Is The Largest Selling English Daily In The World.
