A senior official from Jaipur International Airport Limited said that the airport has started expanding since receiving the aerodrome licence from the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA).
The licence was previously held by the Airport Authority of India (AAI). The private company that has been running the Jaipur airport since October 2021 is now the new holder of the licence.
An airport operator is granted the licence in order to ensure total control of the airport in accordance with the concession agreement.
“We have received the Aerodrome license for Jaipur International Airport Limited (JIAL). Now the complete management of the airport lies with us in accordance with the concession agreement. Major customer-centric changes have been made at the airport and now we are looking for expansion,” said a senior official of JIAL.
