The United States has raised concerns over the Adani Group’s plan to shift cargo operations from Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport to the upcoming Navi Mumbai airport.
The decision is linked to planned upgrades at the Mumbai airport, which may reduce cargo capacity temporarily. However, US authorities say forcing airlines, including American carriers, to relocate could violate bilateral aviation agreements and limit operational freedom.
They have also flagged competition concerns, as Adani operates both airports. The company says the shift is temporary and aimed at managing capacity. Talks are ongoing.
