While weather is set to improve as per the forecast by the local meteorological department, the Director AAI expressed hope that all flights will operate on Sunday. However he urged travelers to check the status before heading to the airport. “I request the travelers to follow our twitter handle as well as remain in touch with the respective airlines regarding the status of the flights and then plan accordingly,” he said.

For a brief moment around noon today, light improved and there appeared chances of flight operations. The AAI had even announced resumption of the operations “soon” after clearing the snow from the runway and the apron.
“Unfortunately the snowfall started again and the visibility dropped, forcing the cancellation of all the flights,” an official of AAI said.

On Friday, 31 flights operated to and fro Srinagar airport before sudden change in weather happened, leading to cancellation of six others.

On Thursday, 35 flights operated while 6 others were cancelled. 42 flights were cancelled on Tuesday while many as 37 could not operate on Wednesday.

Meanwhile, snowfall threw normal life out of gear in Kashmir Valley despite an advisory by the MeT Department several days ago.
