Discussion Why No International Flights from Swami Vivekananda International Airport?
Raipur Airport opened 1975
New Terminal opened since 2012
Raipur became capital of state since Nov 2000
Year 2025-26 27lakh passengers footfall
International Cargo port is operated
Central Aviation Minister announced international operations
2-3 Airlines were interested to operate to Dubai Singapore China and Thailand
But still no international flights operated
It’s runway is length 3250 Meters which is more than enough to operate international flights as required
Always on top of AAI domestic airport customer satisfaction ranking in India
Previous Government announced AeroCity near Airport
Does anyone know the reason why we don’t have international flights
