After being badly hit by dense fog, flight operations at the Indira Gandhi International Airport were normal today even as the airport witnessed shallow fog.
The visibility remained good throughout the night. Though there was shallow fog in the morning, it had no effect on the flight operations as the visibility remained above 1,000 metres, airport sources said.
The runway visibility on the main runway was above 2,000 metres throughout the night but it dropped to 1,900 metres in the morning.
Similarly, the visibility on the third runway was around 1,600 metres and it dipped to 1,200 metres. But there was no disruption of flight movement.
Dense fog had affected the schedule of over 250 flights after it enveloped the airport on January 14 and 15.
On January 14, the airport witnessed the worst fog of the season which led to suspension of flight operations for around two hours affecting the schedule of around 160 flights. Yesterday, around 75 flights were hit due to dense fog.
