The disruptions have affected both domestic and international passengers, with airlines issuing urgent travel advisories. Flight crew duty-hour limitations, as mandated by the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA), further complicated recovery efforts, as reserve crews had to be deployed. Passengers faced extended delays, cancellations, and diversions, with some flights rerouted to regional airports. Additionally, heavy rainfall overwhelmed municipal drainage systems, causing significant road flooding and hindering access to the airport.
