As of January 12, the airport handled a total of 1,09,917 passengers, comprising 55,934 arriving and 53,983 departing passengers. January 10 was recorded as the busiest day when 7,345 passengers departed and arrived at the facility, Navi Mumbai International Airport Ltd (NMIA) said.

During December 25-January 12, the airport operator said, the facility managed 734 air traffic movements (arrival and departure of aircraft), including 32 general aviation flights. It added that a total of 40,260 arriving bags and 38,774 departing bags were also processed during this period.

The airport handled 22.21 tonnes of cargo, underlining the airport's integrated approach to passenger and cargo operations from the outset, NMIAL said.

In terms of connectivity, Delhi, Goa, and Bengaluru emerged as the top sectors, it added.
