After a 7 year long wait Mumbai has an airport it can brag about to the whole world. The covers are finally off the new gateway to Mumbai, the T2 terminal. The Prime Minister has already inaugurated the four-level mega structure, but its not going to be open to the public for a few weeks. The financial capital can now boast of an airport at par with the best in the world - from Gardens and fountains to multilevel car parks. The T2 GVK 's Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport has much to show off. The state-of-the-art T2 is an integrated four-level terminal spread over 4.39 lakh square metres that can accommodate over 40 million passengers per year Mr. Chanderbhan Manwani, Project Head & Senior Vice President GVK said we have created our own benchmark. People will measure other airports in comparison with Mumbai now. For passengers complaining of immigration delays at the old international terminal's 80 immigration counters, T2 has 140 counters. With a large waiting area, crowding too will be reduced. The multilevel car park is another feather in its cap. Space for over 5,000 vehicles, the 9 storied car parking is one of the biggest in the country.
