Goa's Mopa airport is a significant moment in India's aviation history. The new greenfield airport in Mopa is illustrative of how airports have emerged as a top priority for the government. The all-new airport is seen as a golden opportunity for the state of Goa as it will fortify its position as India's dream holiday capital, boosting domestic connectivity, which was limited at the Dabolim airport as it doubles up as a Naval base.
