The D.B. Patil International Airport, along India’s first civil aviation airport at Juhu and the Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport, will be the third airport in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region.

Union Civil Aviation Minister Kinjarapu Ram Mohan Naidu and Mr. Mohol reviewed the construction progress on July 13 by visiting the site in Navi Mumbai. Speaking to reporters after his visit, Mr. Mohol said, “The airport will be operational in March 2025. The construction progress is as per schedule.” The construction is being undertaken by the concessionaire, Navi Mumbai International Airport Private Limited, a subsidiary of Adani Enterprises Limited.

Earlier, the entire airport was to be operational in two phases, but the phases were later merged to match up with the deadline for the second phase, which now stands at March 2025.
