One CAT III runway at Delhi airport: Blame game over diversion of flights

IndiaTimes Friday, 29 December 2023
Over 100 flights to and from Indira Gandhi International Airport were delayed due to dense fog, triggering a blame game between the airlines and Delhi International Airport Ltd. The airlines and DIAL blamed each other for the situation. The Delhi Airport has only one CAT III-equipped runway for operations in low visibility. Airlines are facing questions about deploying the right planes and CAT-III-trained crew. The DGCA is investigating claims that 50 of the 58 diversions were due to captains not being trained for low-visibility operations.
