Flights operating from Delhi are likely to face delays today due to dense fog conditions at Indira Gandhi International Airport. Airport authorities have issued a passenger advisory confirming that flight operations are currently being conducted under CAT III conditions, which are used during extremely low visibility but often result in slower aircraft movements and schedule disruptions.
According to the advisory, poor visibility caused by thick fog has impacted runway operations, leading to possible delays in arrivals and departures. While CAT III landing systems allow aircraft to operate safely in near-zero visibility, the process requires additional precautions, spacing between flights, and extended turnaround times, all of which can affect on-time performance.
Passengers travelling through Delhi Airport today have been advised to stay in touch with their respective airlines for the latest updates on flight status. Travellers can also check real-time information through the airport’s official website before heading to the terminal to avoid unnecessary waiting.
