Lokpriya Gopinath Bordoloi International Airport (LGBIA), Guwahati, has demonstrated a strong operational performance in the first quarter of the current financial year (April to June 2025), posting significant year-on-year growth in both aircraft movements and passenger traffic.
During the quarter under review, LGBIA handled 12,470 aircraft movements and 1.81 million passengers, both registering double-digit growth when compared with the same period last year.
LGBIA stated, “this performance reaffirms the airport's role as a critical aviation hub in Northeast India and reflects the increasing demand for air connectivity across the region. With continuous investments in infrastructure, technology, and passenger experience, LGBIA continues to support the region’s economic integration with the rest of the country and abroad.”
