Overview
- Air India will reassign 60 of its 180 daily domestic departures to Terminal 2, while Air India Express will run all domestic flights from Terminal 1 as both carriers keep international services at Terminal 3.
- Delhi International Airport is enlarging Terminal 3 by converting Pier C to international use, lifting international capacity toward about 32 million passengers a year from roughly 24 million currently handled.
- Air India flights operating via Terminal 2 will use four‑digit numbers starting with 1 (AI1XXX) to clearly signal the departure and arrival terminal.
- Through‑ticketed passengers will get inter‑terminal transfers with airside baggage movement, and the airport will operate free shuttles every 10 minutes plus buggy rides for travelers with reduced mobility.
- Air India and Air India Express will notify affected customers and deploy additional, clearly identifiable ground staff to assist during the transition.
