In a breaking development, adverse weather conditions in Delhi have forced the diversion of 10 flights to alternative destinations. Of these, nine flights were diverted to Jaipur, while one flight was redirected to Lucknow, according to airport authorities.
The inclement weather, characterized by poor visibility and unfavorable flying conditions, compelled airlines to take precautionary measures to ensure the safety of passengers and crew. The decision to divert the flights was made in adherence to established protocols and guidelines governing aviation operations during challenging weather situations.
The diverted flights, originating from various domestic and international destinations, were expected to land at Delhi’s Indira Gandhi International Airport. However, due to the prevailing weather conditions, the flights were rerouted to Jaipur and Lucknow airports, where weather conditions were more favorable for safe landings.
Passengers on board these flights experienced a delay in reaching their intended destination, but the diversions were carried out with the primary objective of ensuring their safety and well-being. Airlines and airport authorities are working diligently to provide necessary assistance and facilitate alternative travel arrangements for affected passengers.
As weather conditions remain unpredictable, travelers are advised to stay in close contact with their respective airlines for the latest updates on flight schedules and potential disruptions. Airports across the region are closely monitoring the situation and taking appropriate measures to minimize inconvenience to passengers.
Delhi, being a key hub for air travel in India, experiences occasional weather-related disruptions, especially during certain seasons. The safety and security of passengers remain the utmost priority, and airlines and airport authorities maintain strict vigilance to ensure smooth operations even in challenging weather conditions.
Travelers are encouraged to stay informed, follow advisories issued by airlines and airport authorities, and exercise patience and understanding as efforts are made to mitigate the impact of adverse weather on air travel.
