In a major development for air traffic management, all four runways at Delhi's Indira Gandhi International Airport (IGIA) will be fully operational from the first week of January. This strategic step aims to optimize airport capacity, reduce congestion and improve overall air traffic efficiency.

The decision to operationalize the four runways is part of a comprehensive plan to manage the growing air traffic at the Delhi airport. This measure is expected to significantly improve flight turnaround times, reduce delays and accommodate the growing number of passengers and aircraft movements.

Indira Gandhi International Airport is one of the busiest airports in the country and the use of all four runways will play a crucial role in meeting the growing demand for air travel. The coordinated operation of the runways is expected to improve the airport's capacity to handle more flights and contribute to the smooth functioning of the aviation ecosystem.

The decision is in line with the airport's commitment to providing world-class services and facilities to passengers and airlines. Optimizing runway operations is a proactive step to address the challenges posed by increased air traffic and ensure that Delhi Airport remains a hub of connectivity and efficiency in the aviation sector.

With its four runways fully operational in the first week of January, Delhi Airport is set to strengthen its position as a major gateway and offer greater accessibility and convenience to domestic and international travellers.
