Gautam Adani's visit came hours after the NMIA received its aerodrome licence on September 30.
The aerodrome licence is a key approval from the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) for the Navi Mumbai Airport, they said.
The licence means the airport has met all the necessary safety and regulatory standards, and is now allowed to begin operations.
Officials said that the licence allows the airport to commence flight operations, although the exact date for the start of commercial flights will be announced soon.
The Navi Mumbai International Airport is expected to help reduce air traffic pressure from the Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport (CSMIA) in Mumbai and provide better connectivity for travellers in the region.
