The airdrome, located in Jewar in Uttar Pradesh’s Gautam Buddh Nagar district, is expected to significantly ease congestion at Delhi’s Indira Gandhi International Airport.The airport has already begun outreach to carriers for ticket bookings after receiving approval for its Aerodrome Security Programme (ASP) from the Bureau of Civil Aviation Security - a clearance that triggers a mandatory 45-day countdown before operations can start.Budget carrier IndiGo will operate the first passenger flight from the airport, followed shortly by Akasa Air and Air India Express, according to a statement issued by the airport operator.
