The airport is served by a broad mix of Indian and international carriers, with IndiGo as the largest operator.

Airport History
Bengaluru's current commercial airport replaced the city's older civil airport, which had limited room for expansion. Planning for a new airport aimed to provide a larger site with improved capacity for both domestic and international traffic.
The airport opened in the 2000s and quickly became the city's primary commercial air gateway. As traffic increased, the airport expanded its passenger handling capacity and airline network, moving from a developing regional field into one of India's leading hub airports.
Further growth brought additional terminal and airfield development to support rising demand from Bengaluru's expanding economy. The airport's facilities were adapted for higher volumes of domestic travel, more international service, and larger aircraft operations.
Its current role reflects that expansion history: a major hub serving a fast-growing metropolitan market, with strong domestic connectivity and a broad international schedule.
