Flight operations at Srinagar Airport were suspended on Tuesday following continuous snowfall that made runway conditions unsafe, officials said.
Airport authorities stated that heavy snow accumulation on the runway prevented safe take-offs and landings, leading to the cancellation of all incoming and outgoing flights for the day. The decision was taken as a precautionary measure to ensure passenger safety.
“Persistent snowfall has affected runway conditions, making it unsafe for flight operations,” an airport official said.
Officials from the airport administration and airline companies said the situation is being closely monitored. Flight services will resume once weather conditions improve and the runway is cleared and declared operational.
Passengers have been advised to check their flight status with their respective airlines and stay updated through official communication channels.
