BORJHAR: The day of November 14 witnessed the highest-ever single-day passengers and Air Traffic Movements (ATM) in 2024-20,413 passengers, with 146 flight movements.

Lokpriya Gopinath Bordoloi International (LGBI) Airport, Guwahati, managed by Adani Airport Holdings Limited, a subsidiary of Adani Enterprises Ltd-the flagship incubator of the globally diversified Adani Portfolio-processed over 1.74 lakh passengers over the last ten days, since November 6 last. The airport successfully managed 1,202 flights, ensuring smooth operations for passengers.

On November 14, LGBI Airport recorded its highest passenger count of the year, with over 20,413 passengers passing through the terminal and 146 Aircraft Traffic Movements (ATMs). In the same festive week, the airport witnessed the second highest passenger movement, on November 10, when the airport served 20,016 passengers with 131 flight movements.

Notably, LGBI Airport achieved its highest-ever international passenger traffic in October, with 7,651 passengers and 104 aircraft traffic movements.

On regular days, Guwahati Airport manages an average of approximately 17,500 passengers each day, with 127 aircraft traffic movements. The smooth and seamless passenger movement of over 1.74 lakh travellers is testament to the dedication and hard work of all the airport stakeholders, including AAI, CISF, immigration, customs, airline partners, and the LGBI Airport team.

This exceptional accomplishment is attributed to several ongoing and completed infrastructure updates and constant improvement to the infrastructure at Guwahati Airport. LGBI Airport's strategic expansion and enhanced connectivity have played a pivotal role in driving this positive momentum. As Guwahati continues to grow as a major economic hub in the North East, LGBI Airport is well-positioned to serve as a vital gateway for both domestic and international travelers.
