With 27 airports shut, diverted flights set to get even longer

Following the closure of 27 airports in north India due to escalating tensions with Pakistan, flights are facing longer routes and potential diversions to more distant airports like Mumbai and Ahmedabad. Airlines are bypassing Pakistani airspace, causing congestion on routes via Mumbai. Indian carriers have relocated aircraft and crew from the affected airports, with IndiGo moving planes from Chandigarh.
