Airlines Seek Lower Levies to Move to Jewar

Air passengers in Delhi's national capital region can expect cheaper fares if they fly out of Noida's Jewar airport, as airlines are seeking discounts on various charges for shifting to the new airport that is likely to begin operations in the second half of 2025.

Airports impose several charges on carriers for using their amenities, including landing fees and parking fees (based on weight of the aircraft), charges for air traffic control services, ground handling fees (like baggage handling), and terminal charges for using passenger facilities. All these charges are built into the tickets sold by airlines, jacking up airfares.

The Noida International Airport (NIA) at Jewar, which is running behind schedule by about six months, is operated by Yamuna International Airport Pvt. Ltd, a wholly owned arm of Switzerland's Zurich Airport International AG.
