New Delhi: The Indira Gandhi International Airport (IGIA), managed by Delhi International Airport (P) Limited (DIAL), a GMR led Consortium, has retained the world’s number 1 position for the second consecutive year in 25-40 Million Passengers Per Annum (MPPA) category. This ranking has been announced by Airports Council International (ACI) in the 2015 Airport Service Quality (ASQ) Awards today.

IGI Airport stands ahead of all other Indian airports by winning maximum number of awards in 2015. The IGI Airport has also been conferred with two more prestigious awards:

>> The Best Airport by Size & Region – Asia Pacific (25 – 40 MPPA)

The airport has recorded substantial improvement after the GMR led consortium took over the operations in 2006. In the next year, the airport’s ASQ ranking was 101 in the world. From this very low position, DIAL has made rapid progress over the years in enhancing the IGI Airport’s service quality, which has resulted in steady improvement in its rankings. In 2011, the airport had achieved the position of world’s number 2, which it retained for three consecutive years till 2013. In 2014 it stepped up its position to world’s no. 1 rank in the 25-40 MPPA category and retained the rank in 2015 with score of 4.96 in ASQ survey on scale of 1 to 5.
