Bengaluru airport’s ‘T2 can handle 25mn flyers a year, will be operational after 30-45 days’

Speaking a day after the inauguration of Kempegowda International Airport’s Terminal 2 by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Bangalore International Airport Limited chief executive and managing director Hari Marar said Saturday that the terminal was equipped to handle at least 25 million flyers annually and would be operationalised only after one or one and a half months.

“The terminal has just been inaugurated and there are a couple of processes yet to be completed. Certain trials and security sweeps have to be conducted. As soon as these are completed, we will operationalise it, roughly between one or one and a half months,” Marar said.
