What's improved for passengers
NEW DELHI: Terminal-1 (T1) of Delhi's Indira Gandhi International (IGI) Airport will be fully functional from Tuesday after a nine-month hiatus, airport authorities announced on Monday. Operations at T1 were halted after part of the terminal's canopy collapsed during heavy rains in June.
With the reopening of T1, all flights currently operating out of Terminal-2 (T2) will be relocated to T1, paving the way for refurbishment work at T2, which is expected to take three to four months. Currently, T2 handles about 270-280 daily flights and serves over 46,000 passengers, primarily from Akasa Air and IndiGo.
These flights will begin shifting to T1 from April 15, said Delhi International Airport Limited (DIAL). IndiGo has confirmed that from April 15, all its flights currently operating from T2 will move to T1. The airline will now operate only from T1 and T3 at IGI Airport.
