While India and Pakistan have reached an understanding to halt the ongoing conflict, it might take some time before travel to and within India can return to normal.
As India and Pakistan reached an understanding to stop cross-border armed conflict, as many as 32 airports in India are open for civil aircraft operations, Indian airports regulator Airports Authority of India said on Monday. In line with this, airlines are resuming operations at these airports.
In a statement, IndiGo said it will “progressively” commence operations on the previously closed routes. On Monday, it resumed operations on routes from Delhi to Chandigarh, Jammu, and Amritsar, adding that more flights will resume over the next few days. “As services gradually return to normal, there may still be a few delays and last-minute adjustments. We recommend checking your flight status regularly for the latest updates,” it added.
SpiceJet also said that it is working to resume normal operations. Air India said it is working towards progressively commencing flights to and from Jammu, Srinagar, Leh, Jodhpur, Amritsar, Bhuj, Jamnagar, Chandigar
