The terminal is expected to extend luxury to frequent HNI travellers, offering unparalleled comfort, convenience, and bespoke services. Panicker added that GMR Hyderabad International Airport is committed to enhancing excellence in the years to come, ensuring a world-class experience for its travellers. The general aviation terminal, covering 11,234 square feet, is located adjacent to the RGIA terminal and includes a private entrance and car park. The terminal's design features a unique blend of classical architecture with Indo-Saracenic and Indo-Gothic styles, creating an interior atmosphere rich in elegance and comfort. The terminal offers dedicated facilitation services for domestic and international general aviation passengers and is equipped with a lounge, private lounge, separate arrival and departure corridors, check-in, immigration and customs checks, hand baggage processing, security clearance, a breathalyzer test facility for crew, a staff lounge, duty-free options, and a dedicated Wi-Fi-enabled service for seamless connectivity. Passengers will be chauffeur-driven directly to and from the aircraft to avoid any queues or delays. The new general aviation terminal at Rajiv Gandhi International Airport is set to establish a new standard in comfort, efficiency, and luxury.
