Adani Airports to Revamp Mumbai T1 North Section From Jan; 9% Traffic to Shift
The first phase will affect about 5 million passengers a year as AAHL keeps most of Terminal 1 operating during the overhaul.
- Adani Airport Holdings Ltd will begin a phased redevelopment of Mumbai Airport's ageing Terminal 1 starting in January 2027, beginning with the North Section of Terminal 1B due to safety concerns regarding the nearly 60-year-old facility.
- A fire at the terminal in April earlier this year underscored safety hazards and prompted the decision. Extensive consultations with airlines regarding the future of the infrastructure have been ongoing since 2020.
- The initial phase will temporarily affect about 5 million passengers annually, representing about 9 per cent of Mumbai Airport's 55 million total annual traffic. Airlines can transition operations to Navi Mumbai International Airport.
- To ease migration, Navi Mumbai International Airport is offering a 100 per cent discount on landing fees for new international flights. CEO Arun Bansal said the facility has infrastructure to handle the traffic without full shutdown.
- Upon completion, the redevelopment project will expand Terminal 1's total capacity by 33 per cent to 20 million passengers annually. Adani Airports intends to restore all historical flight slots once the modernization is finalized.
