Fogs Covers Chennai City, Flights Delayed

Posted on: 05/Feb/2014 5:05:34 PM

Heavy fog slides down on areas surrounding Chennai in the early hours of the day. Hence from 7.20 AM to 7.50 AM, the flights from Kochi, Bangalore and Hyderabad were not able to land down in Chennai airport and rounded around the airport for about 15 minutes to get clear skies. Airport officials even discussed about diverting these three flights to the nearest visibility airports. And about 7.50 AM the fog got descended and the visibility got increased.  Then slowly these flights were allowed to land in Chennai airport.

In the same way, the Chennai departure flights faced delays in their timings. Due to the maintenance work carried out in the flight parking area near the airline pathway, flights time lag for few moments in airline before departure and thus the flights got delayed.

The Hyderabad flight to Renigunda, a suburban area of Tirupati travelled with 55 passengers, was not able to land in Renigunda airport due to dense fog. It got diverted to Chennai airport at around 8 AM and allowed to departure at 12 NOON from Chennai to Renigunda airport.
