India’s aviation sector is witnessing a historic transformation with the Jewar International Airport, the country’s first 100% Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) aviation project, nearing completion. Developed by Zurich International Airport AG, this ambitious project is set to enhance regional and global connectivity, offering a world-class travel experience.
Key Highlights:
- Six runways & six terminals planned, with an annual passenger capacity of 225 million.
- Strategic location near the Yamuna Expressway, ensuring seamless access to major highways.
- Multimodal transport integration—rapid rail corridor, metro extension, and underground railway link.
- Conflict-free land acquisition—6,000 hectares secured without legal disputes or protests.
- First flight validation test completed, signaling readiness for operations.
Jewar Airport is expected to ease congestion at Delhi’s Indira Gandhi International Airport, which is already operating at peak capacity. The Yamuna Expressway Industrial Development Authority (YEIDA) is overseeing the project, ensuring swift execution and transparency.
With state-of-the-art infrastructure, global investor backing, and unmatched connectivity, Jewar Airport is poised to become India’s premier international gateway, redefining air travel for millions.
