Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport (CSMIA) will temporarily halt flight operations for six hours on May 9 due to scheduled runway maintenance. The maintenance work, which will take place ahead of the monsoon season, is part of the airport’s annual pre-monsoon preparation to ensure the longevity and safety of its infrastructure.

Mumbai's Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport (CSMIA) has taken a significant step forward in enhancing passenger processing by expanding its terminal entry points (eGates) from 24 to 68, making it the airport with the highest number of such eGates at the kerbside/landside in India. This development, announced on Tuesday, aims to triple the airport's processing capacity and drastically reduce waiting times to less than one minute at the kerbside.

In the aftermath of a widely circulated video capturing passengers dining on the tarmac at Mumbai airport, the Civil Aviation Ministry has imposed significant fines on IndiGo and the airport authorities. IndiGo faces a penalty of ₹1.20 crore, while Mumbai Airport is fined ₹90 lakh.

India's Ministry of Corporate Affairs is investigating the financial statements of Adani Group's airports in Mumbai for the years 2017-22, adding to the conglomerate's ongoing challenges, including allegations of offshore tax havens and stock manipulation.
