Mumbai Airport To Change Terminals for Domestic And International Flights

In an attempt to structurally streamline the operation of various airlines, the Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport, Mumbai will make changes in its current structure. 

Beginning from October 1, 2019, IndiGo and GoAir will operate all domestic flights from terminal T1 and all international flights from terminal T2. Apart from this, carrier SpiceJet will shift its full operation to terminal T2. The move has been undertaken for the convenience of passengers travelling through Mumbai International Airport along with keeping the benefit of the airlines in mind.

Being one of the busiest airports in India, the Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport has allocated Terminal 1 with terminal boarding bridges for all airlines.

The primary runway at CSMIA handles more than 46 arrivals and departures per hour while the secondary runway has a capacity of 35 flight movements per hour.

Having catered to over 48 million passengers in 2018-2019, CSMIA is always abuzz with travellers and has always taken keen initiatives keeping in mind the ‘passenger first’ approach.Right from paperless boarding to ordering food from an app to body scanners, CSMIA has always put passengers first!
