DGCA grants approval for mixed runway operation at Kempegowda Airport

The Kempegowda International Airport (KIA) in Bengaluru has reached another milestone in aviation services. The Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) has granted official approval for mixed mode runway operations at the airport. This makes it the second airport in the country to implement this system after the Delhi Airport. This new technology will facilitate landing and take-off on a single runway, increasing the flight capacity to 80-85 per hour.
