Airport Information – Chennai Airport
Chennai Airport was officially opened in 1930 but had been functioning as a postal and commercial airstrip since 1912! At first, it alternated civil and military use but since the 1950s it has functioned exclusively as an international civil airport. It has four terminals – including a cargo one – the oldest of which is in Art Deco style. There are two runways and the sustained air traffic brings around 18 million passengers every year. The main tourist services are present such as restaurants, shops, meeting rooms, banks, taxis and rental cars or shuttles. The airport is well connected to the city center, 20 km away.
