New international airport at Bangalore soon
A new international airport at Bangalore will open for operations in less than 13 months from now, Civil Aviation Minister Praful Patel informed the Rajya Sabha today.

"The opening date of the new international airport at Bangalore, as fixed by the Bangalore International Airport Ltd, is April 2, 2008," he said in a written reply to a question.
He said the Karnataka government has suggested the new airport be known as Bangalore International Airport.

"As a matter of general policy, the name of the city is retained for naming the airport since passengers and visitors in general, and foreign tourists in particular, find it easier to identify the airport when it is named after the city it services," Patel said.
