US-Iran conflict: Delhi IGI Airport cancels 100 services, informs flyers of delay in int'l flights over airspace closure
The ongoing conflict between the US and Iran has led to significant disruptions in air travel across India, particularly at major airports like Delhi's Indira Gandhi International Airport (IGI) and Mumbai's Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport. In response to the closure of airspace in the Middle East, over 225 flights have been canceled, with Delhi IGI Airport alone halting around 100 services. Airlines including Air India and IndiGo have issued advisories to inform passengers of potential delays in international flights. This situation has been exacerbated by escalating regional tensions, particularly following the reported death of Iranian leader Ayatollah Khamenei, which has raised fears of further conflict in the region. Travelers are advised to check with their airlines for the latest updates and to remain aware of the shifting geopolitical landscape that is impacting air travel plans.
