Arunachal Pradesh

Donyi Polo airport, the 1st greenfield facility in the northeastern state, is located at Hollongi, approximately 15 kilometers from the state capital Itanagar, and will link the border state with other Indian cities with commercial flights as well as other parts of Arunachal Pradesh through helicopter services.

The airport’s foundation stone was laid by Prime Minister Modi on February 2019. The new airport has been developed in an area of over 690 acres, at a cost of more than ₹640 crores. With a 2,300 m runway, the airport is suitable for all climate day operations.

It will have 8 check-in counters and can accommodate 200 passengers during peak hours. There is no airport in Arunachal Pradesh. The closest facility is at Lilabari airport, 80 km away in Assam’s North Lakhimpur district.

There are a few advanced landing grounds in the state, including in Pasighat and Tezu. Spread over a 4,100 sq m area, Donyi Polo airport, in Itanagar will be equipped with all modern facilities for travelers.

After the inauguration ceremony of the Donyi Polo airport, Prime Minister Modi told that the government is dedicated to serving the northeast sector. “From culture to agriculture, from commerce to connectivity, the growth of the north-east has become our top priority,” prime minister Modi told

The name of the airport reflects the traditions and rich cultural heritage of Arunachal Pradesh and its age-old indigenous reverence for the Sun (‘Donyi’) and the Moon (‘Polo’).
