The upcoming Navi Mumbai International Airport (NMIA) is set to introduce a dedicated VVIP terminal, catering exclusively to high-profile personalities, including top government officials, business tycoons, and film celebrities. This exclusive terminal will be developed as part of the airport鈥檚 third phase of expansion, scheduled for completion by 2030, according to official documents.
A New Standard for High-Profile Travel
The VVIP terminal, which will begin construction in FY 2026, is expected to enhance privacy and security for its distinguished users. It will serve:
Central and state government officials
Governors and chief ministers
Defence personnel and top bureaucrats
Film stars and business magnates
Family members of the airport鈥檚 promoters
Additionally, the terminal will accommodate general aviation operations, ensuring a seamless travel experience for private jet flyers.
A First for Mumbai鈥檚 Aviation Infrastructure
Unlike Mumbai鈥檚 existing airport, which lacks a dedicated VVIP facility, NMIA鈥檚 exclusive terminal will set a new benchmark in Indian aviation. The airport is being developed by Navi Mumbai International Airport Ltd (NMIAL), a joint venture between Adani Airport Holdings Ltd (AAHL) and the City and Industrial Development Corporation of Maharashtra (CIDCO).
While NMIAL has not yet responded to inquiries regarding this development, sources confirm that the first phase of NMIA is expected to be operational after May 15, 2025.
