The national capital’s IGI Airport (IGIA) is set to enhance its airside capacity to bring in more flights and reduce delays on account of congestion.
As part of a project with Airports Authority of India (AAI) and UK-based consultancy NATS, the airport will launch a plan from spring 2019 to increase its flight-handling capacity.
The airside enhancement comes as the ever-growing traffic of air passengers touched the 7 crore mark in 2018 and to support such a massive footfall, flight movements have already reached over 1,300 per day.
