The plan includes significant upgrades to the airport's existing terminals, with provisions to accommodate the increasing number of international and domestic passengers. The modernization project aims to transform Thiruvananthapuram Airport into a world-class hub by enhancing amenities, improving baggage handling, and increasing the number of check-in counters.
