Shifting of partial Mumbai international flights to Navi Mumbai deferred till March 2027
The ministry of civil aviation (MoCA) has postponed the partial shift of international flights from Mumbai airport to Navi Mumbai International Airport (NMIA) until March 2027. This decision was made after the MoCA requested Mumbai airport owner Adani Airport Holdings Ltd (AAHL) to delay their plan to move 265 weekly international flights from Mumbai airport's Terminal 2 (T2) to NMIA.
The airlines criticized the proposed relocation schedules as "unachievable," stating that the airport owner proceeded with the decision without consulting them. The shift is intended to make way for the phased redevelopment of Terminal 1 (T1) at Mumbai airport. The move, which would relocate the airport roughly 35km away from Mumbai airport in Andheri, was discussed at a meeting chaired by civil aviation secretary Samir Kumar Sinha.
The meeting involved representatives from IndiGo, Air India, Akasa Air, the Airports Authority of India (AAI), the Federation of Indian Airlines (FIA), and the International Air Transport Association (IATA).
