The Navi Mumbai International Airport marked a historic milestone today with the trial landing of an Indian Air Force C-295 aircraft on its newly built 3,700-metre runway. The occasion was elevated by a thrilling flypast of a Sukhoi-30 fighter jet. Developed by Adani Group and CIDCO, the airport is currently 75% complete and is scheduled to commence domestic operations by March 2025.
With plans for four terminals and a projected annual capacity of 90 million passengers, Mumbai is set to become the first Indian city with two international airports.
