Zurich Airport Expects Slower Ramp-Up at Noida Airport Amid Geopolitical Challenges
Noida International Airport in Jewar, Uttar Pradesh, began operations in June and currently handles domestic flights with plans to expand internationally. Operator Zurich Airport International AG anticipates a slower ramp-up due to geopolitical challenges, including the closure of Pakistani airspace and regional conflicts, causing near-term uncertainty. Despite initial financial losses and operational challenges, the company remains confident in the airport's long-term growth potential within India's fast-growing aviation market, aiming to serve 12 million passengers annually.
