Manohar International Airport (IATA: GOX, ICAO: VOGA),[5] is an international airport at Mopa in Pernem Taluka, North Goa district in the state of Goa, India. It serves North Goa and the adjoining districts of Karnataka and Maharashtra, and as a second airport of Goa after Dabolim Airport in Dabolim. On an average, the airport handles around 100 aircraft movements and about 15,000 passengers daily.[6] The airport is developed by GMR Goa International Airport Limited (GGIAL), a special purpose vehicle (SPV).[7] It is built at a cost of ₹3,000 crore (equivalent to ₹32 billion or US$400 million in 2023). The airport is built under the Build Operate Transfer (BOT) model in four phases, with the first phase costing a total of ₹1,500 crore (equivalent to ₹16 billion or US$200 million in 2023). In financial year 2023-24, the airport handled over 4.4 million passengers, which is close to its current maximum capacity of 4.5 million passengers per year.[8][2] It is named after the former Minister of Defence and the former Chief Minister of Goa, Manohar Parrikar.[5]
It was expected to be completed by the financial year 2019–2020,[9] but was delayed due to a Supreme Court order that impeded work on site,[10] and also due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, which caused lockdowns, restrictions, and curfews, resulting in lack of labor and delays in construction. The airport was completed and opened on 11 December 2022, with operations starting from 5 January 2023 with the first flight operated by IndiGo.[1][11][12]
The concession period for the greenfield project is 40 years with a possible extension of another 20 years through a bid process. The airport will cater to 4.4 million passengers in the first phase and 13.1 million by the end of the fourth phase.[13] The airport will operate on a hybrid model with 30% cross-subsidy, and the concession offers 232 acres of land for commercial city-side development for a period of 60 years.[14]
