Delhi airport sees 15 flight diversions due to bad weather
Scores of flights were delayed, and some were cancelled at the Indira Gandhi International Airport (IGIA) in the national capital due to the bad weather
At least 15 flights were diverted and numerous others delayed at Delhi's Indira Gandhi International Airport on Monday due to severe weather, officials announced. The airport, which manages over 1,300 flight movements daily, faced challenges as rain, thunderstorms, lightning, and winds of 30-40 kmph swept through the city. In response, 12 flights were rerouted to Jaipur, two to Chandigarh, and one to Lucknow.
Air India and IndiGo airlines expressed concern over the weather's impact on their flight schedules, urging passengers to verify their flight statuses before arriving at the airport. Over 280 services experienced delays, with more than 20 flights ultimately cancelled, according to data from the flight tracking website Flightradar24.com.
