The mega project is a landmark Rs 19,650 crore greenfield infrastructure, poised to transform the Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR) into a global multi-airport city. The new facility is set to majorly ease congestion at the existing Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport (CSMIA) and usher in a new era for India's aviation sector.

The Navi Mumbai International Airport is India's first fully digital airport, designed to be fully DigiYatra-enabled and supported by automated, AI-enabled terminal systems for a seamless, paperless experience.

Designed by a London-based architectural firm by late Zaha Hadid, the terminal building features a unique and modern lotus-inspired architectural design floating lotus, inspired by India's national flower.

Operations at the state-of-the-art airport are scheduled to begin in December 2025.

It also offers 88 check-in counters, including both staffed and self-service options.
