Noida Airport projects 6.5 million footfall in its first year of operations

The Noida International Airport at Jewar has revised its traffic forecast to now anticipate 6.5 million passengers upon opening, following the recovery in air traffic, according to a report by The Economic Times. The airport, owned by Zurich Airport and constructed by Tata Projects, is set to be operational by 2024 and had initially expected to have 4.1 million passengers in its first year.

Air traffic recovery has also led to large aircraft orders by airlines in India, contributing to the increase in expected footfall.
