Mumbai airport system outrage: 18 flights delayed, 3 cancelled, DigiYatra affected, here's what authorities said
IndiGo and Air India were affected by a recent technical glitch at the Mumbai International Airport. All operations were shifted to manual mode.
Mumbai's Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport faced a technical glitch causing disruptions to flights and other operations on Tuesday evening. The disruption affected 44 scheduled passenger flights, with 18 experiencing delays of an hour or more and three being cancelled. Check-in counters slowed down, and automated e-gates stopped working due to the issue with DigiYatra.
CISF personnel assisted passengers individually as the digital system failed. Airport officials switched to manual processing to minimize passenger inconvenience and maintain essential operations. Adani Enterprises, the airport's operator, stated that the temporary network disruption led to manual measures being implemented to reduce passenger inconvenience and maintain continuity of operations.
Adani Airports is currently planning redevelopment of Terminal 1 to increase its annual passenger-handling capacity.
