According to Jyotiraditya Scindia India is set to double its commercial fleet and airport capacity in metro cities in the next three to four years.
“There will come a time in India, in the not-too-distant future, the next three years, four years, where our fleet capacity will grow from the current 720 to almost 1,500 aircraft. There will come a time in India, in the not-too-distant future, where if you look at our metro capacities today, which are at roughly 221 million passengers that will grow to about 400 million passengers,” he said.
Scindia was speaking at the inauguration of an elevated taxiway and a fourth runway at Delhi airport.
