NEW DELHI

The Ministry of Civil Aviation has stepped in to pause Adani Airports’ proposed reduction in international flight operations at Mumbai’s Terminal 2, giving airlines and the airport operator until October 20 to finalise a transition plan for the redevelopment of Terminal 1.

The intervention follows strong opposition from airlines to Mumbai International Airport Ltd’s (MIAL) plan to cut 265 of Terminal 2’s 770 weekly international departure slots from October 26. The proposed reduction, equivalent to about 34% of international departure slots, would affect 46 carriers. IndiGo faces 74 slot cuts, Air India 33, and Emirates and Etihad Airways 10 each.
