India Oct 04, 2025

Big news for Mumbai travelers: Prime Minister Narendra Modi is set to open the brand-new Navi Mumbai International Airport (NMIA) on October 8, 2025.
Freshly licensed by aviation authorities, this airport will handle up to 90 million passengers and a massive 3.2 million metric tons of cargo every year.
Its airport code? Just "NMI."

Inauguration, 1st flights in December

The airport is a team effort between Adani Group (holding 74%) and CIDCO (with 26%), aiming to make travel smoother as demand skyrockets in Mumbai.
Mark your calendars—while the big inauguration is at 2:40pm on October 8, flights are expected to actually take off from December this year.
