New Delhi: The upcoming Noida International Airport (NIA) won’t see too many transit passengers with Delhi’s IGI. The company in charge of building and operating the airport expects most of NIA’s footfall from its densely populated catchment area and domestic flyers to have a 90% share in passenger traffic in the initial phase.
“I don’t see passengers taking connecting flights between IGIA and Jewar. That sounds pretty cumbersome even if the connectivity is very good,” NIA CEO Christoph Schnellmann told TOI. “I see both airports serving their respective catchments, their existing passenger demand. We expect a lot of point to point (air traffic) at Noida. There is no shortage of prime-time slots for airlines and we will offer transfers, both domestic and international. The terminal has been designed to ensure rapid transfers,” added Schnellmann.
Swiss airport major Zurich AG’s 40-year concessionaire period to build and operate the Noida airport began on October 1. The Rs 5,730-crore project has to commence operations by the end of September 2024. “We are committed to delivering Phase 1 of the airport within three years,” Schnellmann said.
