A new integrated terminal at Mumbai airport is ready for opening on January 15 and Air IndiaÂ’s Newark-Mumbai flight will be the first to arrive at the new terminal, say media reports. During the flight arrival transition, international operations will be suspended for a few hours.

The Mumbai International Airport (MIAL) on November 30 has sent a 45-day notice to all airlines to prepare for shifting to the new terminal and changing their flight schedules.

Mumbai airport’s new terminal will have bigger areas for check-in, security check and baggage delivery. The new terminal, called T2, will initially handle only international flights; domestic operations might shift there later. The Mumbai airport handles 30 million passengers a year. The new terminal, spread over 4,39,000 sq metres, is expected to handle 40 million annually.
