Mumbai’s Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport (CSMIA) has been adjudged as the ‘Best Airport over 40 million passengers’ for the year 2022 in the Asia Pacific region by Airports Council International’s (ACI) Airport Service Quality (ASQ) Awards. CSMIA has been recognised with the title of ‘Best Airport’ for six years in a row. The ASQ Awards are highly regarded in the airport industry, as they are based on passenger feedback.

Meanwhile, Mumbai Airport launched a first-of-its-kind Vertical Axis Wind Turbine (VAWT) & Solar PV system. It comes as a part of the transition to become a 100% sustainable green energy-consuming airport. Furthermore, the airport set up Electric Vehicle (EV) fast charging stations and inducted over 45 EVs.

The Airport Service Quality (ASQ) surveys are conducted worldwide across airports where passengers are interviewed to rate airport services on the day of travel.
