Indira Gandhi International Airport (IATA: DEL,ICAO: VIDP) is the primary international airport of theNational Capital Region of Delhi, India, situated in Palam, 15km (9.3mi) south-west of the New Delhi railwaystation and 16km (9.9mi) from New Delhi city centre. Named after Indira Gandhi, a former Prime Minister ofIndia, it is the busiest airport in India. With the commencement of operations at the new Terminal 3, it becameIndia's and South Asia's largest aviation hub, with a current capacity of handling more than 46 million passengers.IGIA along with Mumbai's Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport, together handle more than half of the aircraftmovements in South Asia. The airport's operator, Delhi International Airport Private Limited (DIAL), is looking tomake the airport the next international transit hub.Spread over an area of 6,300 acres (2,500ha) of land, Delhi airport serves as the primary civilian aviation hub for theNational Capital Region of India. It was previously operated by the Indian Air Force before its management wastransferred to the Airports Authority of India.[3] In May 2006, the management of the airport was passed over toDelhi International Airport Limited (DIAL), a consortium led by the GMR Group.In 201112, the airport handled 35.88 million passengers and the planned expansion program will increase its capacity to handle 100 million passengers by 2030. The new Terminal 3 building has had the capacity to handle an additional 34 million passengers annually since the start of the 2010 Commonwealth Games. Terminal 3 is the world's 8th largest passenger terminal. In September 2008, the airport inaugurated a 4,430m (14,530ft) runway. In 2010, Indira Gandhi International Airport (IGIA) was conferred the fourth best airport award in the world in the 1525 million category, and Best Improved Airport in the Asia-Pacific Region by Airports Council International.[4]

In 2011, the IGIA was ranked the second-best airport in the world in the 2540 million passengers category, again by Airports Council International. Also in 2011 (the last year that full statistics from ACI are available), the airport was the 34th busiest in the world with 34,729,467 passengers handled, registering a 17.8% growth in traffic over the previous year. The airport uses an advanced system called Airport Collaborative Decision Making (A-CDM), which works on target timings rather than the estimates, to curb delays in landing and takeoffs and make them precise and


predictable.

HistorySafdarjung Airport was built in 1930 and was the main airport for Delhi until 1962.[5] Due to increasing passengertraffic at Safdarjung, civilian operations were moved to Palam Airport (later renamed to IGIA) in 1962. PalamAirport had been built during World War II as RAF Station Palam and after the British left, it served as an Air ForceStation for the Indian Air Force.Palam Airport had a peak capacity of around 1,300 passengers per hour. Owing to an increase in air traffic in the1970s, an additional terminal with nearly four times the area of the old Palam terminal was constructed. With theinauguration of a new international terminal (Terminal 2), on 2 May 1986, the airport was renamed as Indira GandhiInternational Airport (IGIA).

Public private partnershipOn 31 January 2006, the aviation minister Praful Patel announced that the empowered Group of Ministers haveagreed to sell the management-rights of Delhi Airport to the DIAL consortium and the Mumbai airport to theGVK-led consortium.On 2 May 2006, the management of Delhi and Mumbai airports were handed over to the private consortia.Delhi International Airport Limited (DIAL) is a consortium of the GMR Group (50.1%), Fraport (10%) andMalaysia Airports (10%), India Development Fund (3.9%) and the Airports Authority of India retains a 26% stake.

StatisticsThe old airport terminal is now known as Terminal 1 and handles domestic flights for all budget airlines. Theterminal is divided into three separate terminals 1A (for domestic flights of state owned AirIndiaWikipedia:Disputed statement and GoAir), 1B (was used by other domestic airlines, now closed anddemolished), the Domestic Arrival Terminal (1C) and the newly constructed 1D (now used by allremainingWikipedia:Avoid weasel words domestic airlines). There is also a separate Technical Area for VVIPpassengers. Additionally, there is a separate terminal for Hajj flights.Owing to the booming Indian aviation industry and the entry of numerous low-cost private carriers, the airport saw ahuge jump in passenger traffic and has failed to cope with the demand. The capacity of Terminal 1 is estimated to be7.15 million passengers per annum (mppa). However, the actual throughput for 2005/06 was an estimated 10.4million passengers. Including the international terminal (Terminal 2), the airport has a total capacity of 12.5 millionpassengers per year, whereas the total passenger traffic in 2006/07 was 16.5 million passengers per year In 2008,total passenger count at the airport reached 23.97 million.

RunwaysDelhi Airport has three near-parallel runways: runway 11/29, 4,430m 60m (14,534ft 197ft) with CAT IIIBinstrument landing system (ILS) on both sides, runway 10/28, 3,810m 50m (12,500ft 164ft), and an auxiliaryrunway 09/27, 2,813m 45m (9,229ft 148ft). Runway 10/28 and runway 11/29 are the only two in South Asiato have been equipped with the CAT III-B ILS. In the winter of 2005 there were a record number of disruptions atDelhi airport due to fog/smog. Since then some domestic airlines have trained their pilots to operate under CAT-IIconditions of a minimum 350m (1,150ft) visibility. On 31 March 2006, IGI became the first Indian airport tooperate two runways simultaneously following a test run involving a SpiceJet plane landing on runway 28 and a JetAirways plane taking off from runway 27 at the same time.


The initially proposed method of simultaneous takeoffs caused several near misses over the west side of the airportwhere the centrelines of runways 10/28 and 9/27 intersect. The runway use method was changed to segregatedependent mode from 25 December 2007, which was a few days after the deciding near miss involving an AirbusA330-200 of Qatar Airways and an Indigo A320 aircraft. The new method involved use of runway 28 for alldepartures and runway 27 for all arrivals. This method which was more streamlined was followed full-time till 24September 2008.On 21 August 2008, the airport inaugurated its 3rd runway 11/29 costing 10billion and 4,430m (14,534ft) long.The runway has one of the world's longest paved threshold displacements of 1,460m (4,790ft). This, in turndecreases the available landing length on runway 29 to 2,970m (9,744ft). The purpose of this large thresholddisplacement is primarily to reduce noise generated by landing aircraft over nearby localities. The runway increasesthe airport's capacity to handle 85 flights from the previous 5460 flights per hour. The new runway was opened forcommercial operations on 25 September 2008. Presently runways 11/29 and 10/28 operate in mixed mode where alllow cost carrier and cargo aircraft use 10/28 and the rest use runway 11/29, runway 09/27 used as a taxiway and putin use as a runway only during unavailability of 11/29 or 10/28. Runway 11/29 is the main international airlinelanding and departing runway. Runway 10/28 as the main domestic airline landing and departing runway.Trials for simultaneous use of all the runways is expected to start on 6 June 2012. To reduce the stress on theairport's main runway 10/28 during peak hours, all three runways will be operated simultaneously.

TerminalsIGI Airport is the home of several Indian airlines including Air India, Air India Regional, IndiGo, JetKonnect,SpiceJet, Jet Airways, GoAir use IGI Airport as their secondary hub. Approximately 80 airlines serve this airport. Atpresent there are two active scheduled passenger terminals, a dedicated Hajj terminal and a cargo terminal.

Terminal 1 domesticTerminal 1 facilities are currently used by GoAir, IndiGo, SpiceJet and are split into two areas, Terminal 1D fordepartures and Terminal 1C for arrivals.Terminal 1CTerminal 1C is used only for domestic arrivals. The terminal has acquired a new greeting area with expanded space,and a bigger luggage reclaim area.
