New-look airport in the making in Delhi

New Delhi: A new low-cost terminal, airport staff trained by the Taj group of hotels in house-keeping duties, a more efficient air traffic control system that cuts down on flight delays and a world-class experience with huge amount of duty-free shopping area would soon await passengers using the Delhi airport.
This and more could become a possibility with the GMR-led consortium mandated to modernise Delhi having hired a host of international consultants to assist in the project implementation.
While an HR firm, Growtalent, will soon start talking individually and collectively to all the 2,400 employees of the Airports Authority of India (AAI) to chalk out their career progression plan, plans are also afoot to send certain sections of AAI staff to some key airports globally to sensitise them to working of their counterparts.
Besides, the UK-based Mott MacDonald has been hired as the lead technical advisor to the project and three companies including National Air Traffic Services of UK, Airservices Australia and German ATC are in the race for providing consultancy services to improve the efficiency of air traffic controller.
