IndiGo on Monday announced that its flights operating to and from Jammu, Amritsar, Chandigarh, Leh, Srinagar, and Rajkot remain cancelled for May 13, 2025.
"In light of the latest developments and with your safety as our utmost priority, flights to and from Jammu, Amritsar, Chandigarh, Leh, Srinagar, and Rajkot are cancelled for 13th May 2025. We understand how this may disrupt your travel plans, and regret the inconvenience caused. Our teams are actively monitoring the situation and will promptly keep you informed of further updates," said IndiGo in a post on X.
"Before heading to the airport, please check your flight status on our website or app," added IndiGo.
Earlier, the airline had to divert its flight to Amritsar from Delhi back to the national capital after blackout was enforced in the city.
India on Monday reopened 32 airports across north and northwestern parts of the country that were closed due to airspace restrictions following the conflict with Pakistan.
Airports which reopened include Srinagar, Jammu, Chandigarh, Leh, Bikaner, and Amritsar, airport authorities said. This follows approval from the Indian Air Force to resume operations following the ceasefire between the two nuclear armed nations announced on Saturday.
“Attention flyers; reference notice issued for temporary closure of 32 Airports for civil aircraft operations till 05:29 hrs of May 15, 2025. It is informed that these airports are now available for civil aircraft operations with immediate effect,” the Airports Authority of India, which operates these airports, said.
However, Amritsar and Chandigarh airports were shut again at around 9 pm after both the cities announced blackouts following drone sightings in Srinagar.
Airlines and airport authorities are now working to ensure a smooth transition back to normal operations, including reallocation of slots, staff deployment, and crowd management.
IndiGo, which has flights to almost all the airports, said there may still be delays and last-minute adjustments when it restarts flights. Close to 1,000 flights were cancelled in the last four days after these airports were shut for commercial operations.
