Airlines at the Airport

Domestic operations are anchored by IndiGo and Air India Express, supported by other Indian carriers on key city pairs. International access is provided by Gulf carriers and Southeast Asian LCCs that link hubs across the Middle East and ASEAN.

Outlook

With punctuality improving but cancellations higher, airlines should balance tighter block times with ground buffers. Schedules are expected to remain broadly stable, with tactical peak‑week adjustments as demand shifts.
