Noida International Airport (NIA) partners with Mahindra Logistics Mobility to offer a premium, all-electric taxi service for passengers flying from the airport. Under this partnership, Mahindra Logistics will operate a fleet of 100% electric vehicles, aiming to offer passengers a comfortable and environmentally friendly ride. The service will feature premium pickup and drop-off facilities located directly at the arrival and departure kerbs, minimizing walking distances.

The collaboration will ensure seamless and sustainable transportation options for travelers arriving at and departing from NIA, 24 hours a day and 7 days a week. Passengers will be able to book rides through various channels, including a dedicated mobile app, website, call center, airline alliances, and airport kiosks. This multi-channel approach will guarantee accessibility and ease of booking for all travellers.

Christoph Schnellmann, CEO, Noida International Airport, said “At NIA, your journey will not end with baggage claim. We are excited to partner with Mahindra Logistics Mobility to offer a premium, all-electric taxi service, to provide a seamless and environment-friendly ride directly from the airport to your destination. This first-of-its-kind airport-branded cab service will set a new benchmark for passenger convenience and environmental responsibility. This partnership is also a testament to our commitment to providing a best-in-class passenger experience, from the moment they arrive at the airport to the moment they depart for their destination.”

Drivers will undergo rigorous training on airport protocols and customer service standards, ensuring high-quality interactions with passengers. The fleet will be managed with a focus on real-time dynamic adjustments based on passenger demand and flight schedules, reducing wait times, and extending service availability. The service will also incorporate a robust feedback mechanism to continuously monitor and improve service quality.

This partnership also underscores NIA’s commitment to sustainability with an all-electric fleet that aligns with NIA’s vision for a green and environmentally responsible airport. The first phase of the airport will feature one runway and one terminal, with the capacity to handle traffic of 12 million passengers annually. Upon completion of all four development phases, the airport will be able to cater to 70 million passengers per year.
