Indira Gandhi International Airport secured the 5th position among the busiest airports in the Asia Pacific region in 2025, based on OAG data measuring one-way departing seat capacity. The airport recorded 46.18 million seats, marking a significant rise from its 9th rank in 2019. This growth reflects India’s expanding domestic aviation market, increasing middle-class travel demand, and improved airport infrastructure. A major contributor to this surge has been IndiGo, whose aggressive route expansion and fleet growth have boosted overall seat capacity and strengthened Delhi’s standing in regional aviation rankings.
