Mumbai's Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Airport To Undergo T1 Reconstruction Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport (CSMIA) in Mumbai is embarking on a significant infrastructure improvement initiative with the planned demolition and reconstruction of Terminal 1 (T1). This endeavor, prompted by safety and structural concerns, underscores India’s broader commitment to modernizing its transportation hubs. Scheduled to coincide with the operational launch of the new Navi Mumbai International Airport, the strategic timing aims to minimize disruptions to passenger traffic. During the reconstruction phase, Terminal 2 will absorb the increased passenger capacity, showcasing the airport’s adaptability and resilience. The revamped Terminal 1 will enhance the overall airport experience, aligning with India’s vision for world-class air travel facilities. This project not only addresses immediate safety issues but also signifies a long-term commitment to creating modern, efficient, and passenger-friendly airports. By leveraging the combined capacities of CSMIA and Navi Mumbai Airport, Mumbai is poised to strengthen its air connectivity and reinforce its position as a key hub for domestic and international travel. #CSMIA #MumbaiAirport #InfrastructureDevelopment #NaviMumbaiAirport #AirportModernization #PassengerExperience #TransportationHub #IndiaInfrastructure #AirConnectivity

Navi Mumbai International Airport Will Be Ranked Among The Top Three Busiest Airports In The Country. Capt, B V J K Sharma ,CEO, Navi Mumbai International Airport How do you view the progress of India’s infrastructure development and how is the airports sector contributing to this? In a recent address to the nation, Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri. Narendra Modi stated, India is poised to become the world’s third largest economy in the next five years. Clearly the buoyant and bullish infrastructure growth of roads, highways and airports will support the nation’s great leap forward... https://lnkd.in/dwb3Cm54 Ramamurthy Mayavan Anoop Sidharth #infrastructure #constructionindustry #NaviMumbaiAirport #infrastructuredevelopment #airport #industry #construction #growth #development #technology #highway #roadconstruction #development #AdaniAirportsMallika DasguptaPriyanka RajanAdani Group

The truth behind "Till 2014, there were 74 airports in India; now there are 148 airports" The PM, and the civil aviation minister have been claiming, rather boasting, that there were 74 airports in India till 2014, and that this government has doubled that count in 9 years. However, a report in yesterday's The Hindu has debunked these claims based on Ministry of Civil Aviation’s response to its questions. "Only 11 greenfield airports have become operational since May 2014, according to the Minister of State for Civil Aviation V.K. Singh’s reply to a question in the Rajya Sabha on July 24. These include the airports at Mopa in Goa, Shirdi and Sindhudurg in Maharashtra, Kalaburagi and Shivamogga in Karnataka, Kushinagar in Uttar Pradesh, Orvakal (Kurnool) in Andhra Pradesh, Durgapur in West Bengal, Pakyong in Sikkim, Kannur in Kerala, and Donyi Polo in Arunachal Pradesh." "The figure of 74 new airports, regularly trotted out by Prime Minister Narendra Modi as well as Civil Aviation Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia, includes nine heliports and two waterdromes. These two waterdromes, built for seaplanes between Gujarat’s Gandhinagar and the Statue of Unity in Kevadia, closed down soon after the PM’s launch in October 2020, as SpiceJet discontinued its flights after a “change in technical requirements”, the airline told The Hindu in response to a questionnaire." "The government launched 479 routes to revive these airports, out of which 225 have since ceased operations, according to the Ministry of Civil Aviation’s response to questions from The Hindu." "As many as 15 airports, including Sikkim’s only airport in Pakyong, and those in Punjab’s Adampur, Pathankot, and Ludhiana do not see any flights anymore, according to a senior government official." "Of the 225 routes that have ceased operations, 128 routes shut down even before completing the mandatory three-year period under the scheme. Airlines found 70 of these routes to be commercially unviable despite the subsidy, while the remaining 58 have been cancelled either due to “non-compliance” by the airline operator, or the airline surrendering routes, or the airline companies shutting down, as in the case of Air Deccan and Air Odisha. As many as 97 routes shut down after completing the three-year period during which the government provides support. The objective of the scheme was that after the three-year period, airlines would be able to sustain operations on their own without government support, but out of the 155 routes that have completed three years, only 58 have survived. SpiceJet, which bagged 74 routes — or every one in five routes awarded to airlines under the scheme — now flies on only 20 of them, forcing the AAI to send it multiple show-cause notices, warning that its security deposit would be forfeited."

Talking about Airports in Mumbai alone, we have one airport over western line, upcoming new airport over Navi Mumbai (harbour )( cool), why no airports over central line ( why is central line or central suburb abandoned for an Airport???) That's very disgusting, Mumbai Central line must get an airport as well... This will decongest Mumbai a lot, people won't have to worry much about traveling far over right timings and traffic. SAF.. we can then have Shortest Airport First algorithm running. https://lnkd.in/d8YNhnzG
