Indira Gandhi International (IGI) Airport’s Terminal-2 will reopen for passenger traffic from July 22, said Delhi International Airport Ltd (DIAL).
It would be opened two months after it was shut due to a significant drop in domestic air traffic owing to the Covid-19 second wave, said the DIAL in an official statement.
The resumption of operations at T2 from July 22 onwards would be with approximately 200 air traffic movements (100 departures and 100 arrivals) per day and increase progressively up to around 280 movements by August-end, it further said.

Currently, only the Terminal-3 of the Delhi airport is handling flight operations.
“The T-2 will resume operations with IndiGo’s 2000-2999 series flights and entire operations of GoAir, and is expecting to witness around 25,000 passenger footfall in the initial phase,” the DIAL said.
