Government Delays Mumbai-Navi Mumbai International Flight Shift Amid Stakeholder Talks
The Indian civil aviation ministry has asked Adani Airport Holdings Ltd (AAHL) to delay its plan to shift about one-third of international flights from Mumbai's Terminal 2 to Navi Mumbai International Airport, originally scheduled for October 25. Airlines opposed the move, citing operational challenges and potential financial losses. The delay allows stakeholders more time to negotiate a transition plan amid the redevelopment of Mumbai's Terminal 1, with key meetings set for October 13 and 20 to finalize arrangements ensuring minimal disruption.
