A Blue Dart aviation flight from New Delhi, a British Airways flight from London and an Air Asia flight had to be diverted to airports in neighbouring cities. Operations were suspended at 4.45 am and resumed at 8.49 am.
Four departures and arrivals each of Indigo Airlines had to be cancelled due to the fog. One Jet Airways flight departing from and another arriving at KIA were also
cancelled.
The morning disruption had a cascading effect on flight schedules in the afternoon. Passengers had to wait for hours in the departure lounges.
