Since receiving international status in May 2017, the airport has expanded its global reach with flights to the United Arab Emirates, Oman, and Kuwait, positioning itself as a significant player in regional air travel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Historical_Evolution_of_Vijayawada_Airport\"><\/span><strong>Historical Evolution of Vijayawada Airport<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Originally a military base during World War II, the site at Gannavaram transitioned to a civilian airport, significantly modernized over the decades. In 2003, Air Deccan pioneered the route between Hyderabad and Vijayawada, marking the beginning of modern commercial operations. Despite a period of limited service, the airport saw a resurgence in 2011 when major carriers like Air India, Spicejet, and Jet Airways introduced direct flights. Air Costa later established its hub here in 2013, although it eventually ceased operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Recognizing the growing demand, authorities established a new interim terminal in October 2015. This facility, inaugurated in January 2017, was designed to manage two million passengers annually until the completion of a more expansive terminal suitable for international traffic, equipped with customs, immigration, and enhanced security systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"smc\" class=\"wp-block-group has-background is-nowrap is-layout-flex wp-container-core-group-is-layout-ad2f72ca wp-block-group-is-layout-flex\" style=\"background-color:#8dfcfc63\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/news.google.com\/publications\/CAAqBwgKMNXrpwww5_O1BA?hl=en-IN&amp;gl=IN&amp;ceid=IN%3Aen\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"577\" height=\"433\" src=\"https:\/\/bigproperty.in\/blog\/\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Google_news_logo.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13557\" style=\"width:127px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bigproperty.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Google_news_logo.png 577w, https:\/\/bigproperty.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Google_news_logo-300x225.png 300w, https:\/\/bigproperty.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Google_news_logo-80x60.png 80w, https:\/\/bigproperty.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Google_news_logo-265x198.png 265w, https:\/\/bigproperty.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Google_news_logo-560x420.png 560w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 577px) 100vw, 577px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@bigpropertyofficial9667\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"404\" height=\"125\" src=\"https:\/\/bigproperty.in\/blog\/\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/images-4.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13559\" style=\"width:147px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bigproperty.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/images-4.png 404w, https:\/\/bigproperty.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/images-4-300x93.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 404px) 100vw, 404px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/apps\/details?id=bigproperty.in\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"650\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/bigproperty.in\/blog\/\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/app-store-icons-google-play.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13566\" style=\"width:166px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bigproperty.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/app-store-icons-google-play.png 650w, https:\/\/bigproperty.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/app-store-icons-google-play-300x138.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.whatsapp.com\/channel\/0029VaAUFkA9sBIBNO1s1u1V\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"410\" height=\"123\" src=\"https:\/\/bigproperty.in\/blog\/\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/images-8.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13561\" style=\"width:206px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bigproperty.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/images-8.jpeg 410w, https:\/\/bigproperty.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/images-8-300x90.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 410px) 100vw, 410px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Infrastructure_and_Expansion\"><\/span><strong>Infrastructure and Expansion<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Covering over 1,265 acres, <strong><em><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Vijayawada_Airport\">Vijayawada Airpor<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Vijayawada_Airport\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">t<\/a><\/em><\/strong> has adapted its infrastructure to accommodate an increasing number of flights and larger aircraft, including the Boeing 747 and Airbus A350, thanks to its extended runway of 3,360 meters.
