New Delhi, 29 December (H.S.): Dense fog enveloped Delhi, Hindon, and Jammu airports on Monday morning, prompting IndiGo—India's largest carrier—to implement widespread schedule adjustments due to fluctuating visibility levels that disrupted normal operations.
The low-cost airline issued a travel advisory on X, warning passengers of potential cancellations at Jammu and urging real-time status checks via its flight tracker at http://bit.ly/3ZWAQXd, with options for rebooking or full refunds through https://goindigo.in/plan-b.html.
Fog's Impact on Air Travel
IndiGo stated that the thick smog reduced visibility to near-zero at key northern Indian hubs, necessitating delays and revisions to flight timetables as pilots awaited safer conditions for takeoffs and landings. Operations will normalize progressively as weather clears, though Jammu faces heightened risks of outright cancellations amid the prolonged haze typical of winter in the region.
Terminal support teams stand ready to assist affected travelers with updates and alternatives.Passengers encountering disruptions can opt for convenient rescheduling aligned with their preferences or apply for ticket refunds online, ensuring minimal inconvenience during the fog-induced standstill.
This advisory underscores IndiGo's proactive measures to manage the seasonal meteorological challenge that routinely hampers northern aviation corridors.
