IndiGo Issues Travel Advisory, Warns of Flight Delays Due to Dense Fog
IndiGo Airlines has released a travel advisory regarding impending flight delays and disruptions expected due to dense fog in North and East India. The advisory was issued on Tuesday night in anticipation of reduced visibility conditions impacting travel on Wednesday morning.
Impact of Fog on Flight Operations
As the cold winter mornings approach, dense fog is forecasted in several regions. This could lead to major disruptions in flight schedules, causing potential delays or adjustments to flight operations.
In a message posted on X, IndiGo emphasized the importance of safety, stating, “Fog may lead to slower flight movements during the early hours.” The airline is taking proactive measures to manage schedules effectively.
Preparedness and Customer Assistance
IndiGo reassured passengers about the readiness of its teams across various airports. The airline is committed to ensuring a smooth operation despite the challenging weather conditions.
- The teams are working in close coordination to manage schedules.
- Passengers are advised to monitor flight statuses via the IndiGo website or app.
Travel Recommendations for Passengers
Travelers are encouraged to plan for extra time when heading to the airport. The fog not only affects flights but may also slow down road traffic, leading to increased travel times.
- Allow for additional buffer time before departing for the airport.
- Check for the latest flight status updates regularly.
As visibility diminishes due to the combined effects of fog and pollution, both airport authorities and airlines advise passengers to remain vigilant and adjust their travel plans when necessary.
IndiGo’s advisory serves as a timely reminder for travelers to stay informed and prepare accordingly during these winter weather conditions.
