Are India’s airports ready to take off?

Actor and director Revathy loves flying from Kochi International Airport — and she flies for work at least twice a month. “It is designed in such a way that it has a single floor for most processes and you go through so easily. Even the pick-up area for cabs is organised so well,” she says. It handles 180-225 flights per day as compared to bigger airports like Delhi and Bengaluru, which handle 800 to 1,450, respectively. “Goa’s airport was also comfortable when I flew from there with my parents, who both used wheelchairs. But Bengaluru’s T2, while beautiful, is too long a walk!”
