E-way to runway: Jewar’s jewel airport all set to take off

NOIDA: As Noida International Airport prepares to take off and make NCR among the first Indian regions to have two civilian or commercial airports, TOI brings you a brick-by-brick account of how it will take shape and grow.

IGI Airport expects domestic air travel to return to pre-pandemic level by March 2023 and international a year later.

This means that without any further Covid shocks, Delhi-NCR will require two airports to meet its demand for travel by 2024 when Jewar gets its jewel airport.

Work on second runway and T2 likely to start simultaneously

* T1 and T2 will be interconnected for seamless transfers

* Forecourts for both terminals will have direct access to a single-ground transportation centre

* Airport to come up on almost 3,300 acres

* Will have tunnels to access aircraft parking and logistics area in the third and fourth phase of expansion
