Kolkata’s Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose International Airport traces its origins to 1924, making it one of India’s oldest operational airports. Originally known as Dum Dum Airport, it was renamed in 1995 in honour of freedom fighter Subhas Chandra Bose. Today, the airport serves as an important aviation gateway to eastern and northeastern India, connecting passengers to domestic and international destinations while supporting regional tourism and business travel.
