Changi Airport seeks more info on Jaipur, Ahmedabad airports

New Delhi: Singapore's Changi Airport has sought more details from the Airports Authority of India before taking a call on the proposed limited operations and management contracts for Jaipur and Ahmedabad airports.

After taking off four AAI run airports - Kolkata, Chennai, Jaipur and Ahmedabad from its privatisation agenda, the NDA government had last year decided to hand over Jaipur and Ahmedabad airport to Changi under a limited O&M contract.

The documents containing more details on the two airports are likely to be furnished within this week to Changi, a senior AAI official said.
Owned by Singapore Government, Changi is world's seventh busiest airport, having handled 55.4 million passengers and over 3.46 lakh aircraft movements in 2015.

"A team from Changi has already visited both Ahmedabad and Jaipur airports. As part of the due-diligence exercise, it has sought more details," the official said.
