The first and foremost is the traffic management as this city now has the highest density of cars in the country.(Cars to population ratio).Infact there are a few proposals by various car dealers to have their models displayed at the Airport. Mangalore recored the second highest increase in rise in Domestic passenger traffic in India last year and expected to rise this year.

Ajay, I'm a bit skeptic on these statistics . I have no doubt about the potential of a city like Mangalore but these numbers are a bit far fetched... Mangalore airport too could grow only if tourism picks up in the south canara and North Malabar. At present the major chunk of the passengers using Mangalore airport are Gulf bound.
