Mumbai Airport and Airlines Discuss Transition Plan for Terminal 1 Modernization
Representatives from major airlines and Mumbai International Airport Ltd (MIAL) along with Adani Airport Holdings Ltd (AAHL) are meeting to finalize a transition plan for shifting flight operations ahead of Terminal 1's modernization at Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport. The Civil Aviation Ministry intervened after airlines opposed AAHL's initial proposal to move or reduce 265 international flights to Navi Mumbai airport. Discussions aim to delay operational shifts and explore temporary facilities, with airlines requesting detailed technical and safety documentation for the phased redevelopment.
