news 2 min read
New Delhi: The Delhi international airport will shut down operations at its T2 terminal from Monday (May 17, 2021) midnight as the frequency of flights have reduced significantly due to the second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Delhi international airport will redirect all flights to its T3 terminal, the sources revealed.
Currently, the Delhi airport is handling around 325 flights per day, which is far less than the frequency it used to handle before the COVID-19 pandemic which was 1,500 flights per day.
“Terminal Change Alert! Flying to/from Delhi? Make sure you are updated with the terminal information before you Go,” GoAir tweeted.
