On Oct 31, 2020, Mangaluru International Airport Limited assumed administrative and operational management of the airport from Airports Authority of India. Since last year’s fifth anniversary celebration, the airport, which handled 25.5 lakh passengers in FY 2025-26, has achieved several notable milestones in customer experience, sustainability, safety and operational excellence. Among the most significant was the Airports Council International Level 5 Airport Customer Experience Accreditation, which places Mangaluru among a select group of airports globally and one of four in India. The airport also received the Zero Waste to Landfill Platinum-Class 1 Certification from the Confederation of Indian Industry, supported by a landfill diversion rate of more than 99%. The commissioning of the Precision Approach Lighting (PAL) Category 1 system for Runway 24 significantly boosted operational safety and reliability, enhancing landing precision and flight safety during challenging weather conditions.
