Bangalore’s Kempegowda International Airport is making final preparations to kickstart international operations at Terminal 2 on September 12, following a brief delay prompted by readiness concerns.

The Bangalore International Airport Limited (BIAL), the airport’s operator, recently announced the new start date for international flights from Terminal 2 after a last-minute decision to postpone the initial launch, which was originally scheduled for Thursday night. BIAL cited insufficient preparedness as the reason for the delay.

In a statement, a BIAL spokesperson said, “After consultation with regulatory authorities and other stakeholders, BIAL (Bangalore International Airport Limited) is pleased to announce the commencement of International operations at BLR Airport’s Terminal 2 on 12th September 2023, from 10.45 am onwards.” This revised date aims to ensure a smooth transition for passengers and maintain regulatory compliance.

The decision to postpone the start of international operations at Terminal 2 came after a thorough evaluation of multiple factors, including regulatory requirements, operational efficiency, and passenger convenience, the spokesperson added.

Previously, BIAL had announced the delay following a preparedness review meeting late on a Wednesday. An official statement read, “The proposed shifting of international operations to Terminal 2 at Kempegowda International Airport Bengaluru on August 31, 2023, stands postponed. After consulting with all regulatory authorities, BIAL will release a firm date for transition of international operations tomorrow. The last-minute decision was taken during the final preparedness review in order to provide an optimal and seamless transition for our travelers.”

This development signifies the airport’s commitment to ensuring a seamless and efficient experience for international travelers as it readies Terminal 2 for its international operations debut on September 12.
