India’s airports regulator AERA has fixed User Development Fees for Noida International Airport at Rs 490 for departing domestic passengers and Rs 980 for international travellers for 2026-27. The airport is scheduled to start operations on June 15, with UDFs rising gradually through 2031, aiming to align charges with national averages and support airline expansion.
Airport operators are urging India’s Ministry of Civil Aviation for urgent financial relief after a 25% cut to landing and parking charges for domestic flights strained their cash flow. They warn of revenue losses and operational risks, and are seeking measures like deferring payments to AAI. Some also propose raising User Development Fees to offset losses.
