I'd suggest build an Airport in the Sea & link to the existing one or


Build a parallell runway to 09-27.Irrespective of the Difficulty.

My vote goes to build a parallel runway. Building a new airport in the sea will be too expensive, it may also give rise to environmental issues.

the Navi Mumbai plan is utter stupidity...... its too far away to make any sense to those who fly in for business.. corporates are not gonna be very happy.

the nerve centre of the entire country and Bombay the most, is always gonna be town side....

Also, the road from navi mumbai to mumbai is too bad. Maybe, they should start a helicopter service between the 2 airports (if navi mumbai airport is built).

on any God damn day barring a sunday... it takes you a good 2hrs if not more to drive from a hotel at Nariman Point to the International Airport.

i dont even wanna bother computing the factor between Navi Mumbai and Nariman Point. Granted there will be some who will arange for the meetings at the hotels near the Navi Mumbai airport.... but for the area to really develop and to offer the same amount of connectivity and business interlining and facilities as the actual proper city... is like developing an entire new city around the new airport

1) Build a parallel runway by relocating the AI/9W hangars


2) Capitalise on the existing land available (relocating slums, etc) to build additional parking bays and taxiways


3) Expand and modernise the International Terminal (possibly merge both Domestic & International terminals in one huge building to allow easy transfers)


4) Build a Metro train link from the airport to an existing(in the future) Metro rail link e.g. the Versova-Ghatkopar line.


5) Utilize Terminal 1B (recently renovated) to serve Low Cost carriers


This would be the most cost effective solution (if implemented early & correctly) to ease the congestion at BOM.

Starting from scratch or helping the shoe shine....take ur pick.


A parallel runway to the existing 9-27 is the best bet, unless ofcourse greased palms get their way with development and growth.

Folks.


The Airport at Navi Mumbai will be ready by 2010.Thats the Decision of the meeting held recently at BOM between Airline operators,GVK & the concerned rest.


The Parallell runway plan is scrapped,as its not feasable due govt advice & objections by Airllines having Hangars in the Area concerned.


Prices of Apartments at Panvel will rise soon.
