🛫 The Big Picture
Why This Matters
The Noida International Airport at Jewar was inaugurated on March 28, 2026, and is set to reshape NCR's connectivity. Palwal — just ~40 km away — sits in the sweet spot of multiple road, rail, and metro links converging at the airport. With Phase 1 handling 12 million passengers annually and plans for 70 million+ in future phases, this is not just an airport — it's a regional transformation engine.
