From its humble beginnings in 2006 to recrossing the mark of 1 Million Metric Ton (MMT) for the Financial Year (FY) 2023-24, Delhi Airport Cargo has come a long way in its journey. However, cargo tonnage dipped due to the global pandemic and subsequent lockdowns. After 5 years, the Cargo division has achieved this impressive feat for the second time, reaffirming its position as the best cargo hub in India.
Located in the capital city of India, Indira Gandhi International Airport (IGIA) in Delhi is the preferred Air Cargo Hub of India due to its strategic location, hosting elaborate infrastructure and efficient air cargo handling services.
The cargo facility at Delhi Airport is spread across an area of 150 acres comprising state-of-the-art infrastructure, 2 integrated cargo terminals, 3 on-airport logistics centers, and the largest airline network connecting 67 International and 79 Domestic destinations served by 65+ air carriers and 20+ freighter airlines.
Indira Gandhi International Airport (IGIA), which is situated in Delhi, the nation's capital, is the country's chosen air cargo hub because of its advantageous location, sophisticated infrastructure, and effective air cargo handling services.
