Deadlock at Mumbai airport continues as Adani insists on capping airline capacity | Today’s news

Airlines opposed the proposal, prompting the Civil Aviation Ministry to step in and put the plan on hold. At least two airlines, Air France-KLM and Emirates, were vocal in pointing out that splitting traffic between the two airports was not viable. Emirates pointed to the lack of an ecosystem, including ground handling services and catering, at the Navi Mumbai airport, while Air France-KLM said there was no separate catchment area for it. At a meeting on October 13, the parties discussed alternatives, but no agreement was reached to relocate operations.
