COCHIN INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT LTD (CIAL) -

A PATH BREAKER IN INDIAN AVIATION HISTORY

Cochins commercial, cultural & tourist importance, its highest emigration rate, growing metro status and a
burning desire of the Non Resident Keralites for a direct international flight from their homeland and back
prompted the development of an international airport at Cochin.

to various constraints such as
It was a Defense airport & Restrictions for Night Operations
Runway inadequate for operation of larger aircrafts and Geographic Limitations for Airport Expansion
Unidirectional operation due to the presence of permanent obstacles
