Authorities at Srinagar Airport on Saturday announced the withdrawal of the proposed Notice to Airmen (NOTAM) over the closure of operations on the runway on Mondays and Tuesdays as part of the airport's expansion work.
In a statement, the authorities said flight operations would continue on all days, with operational/watch hours from 8 am to 5 pm. However, the runway will remain closed for night-time operations due to maintenance-related activities until October 2026.
According to an official spokesperson, passengers have been informed that there will be no full airfield closure at Srinagar Airport this year.
Earlier, a NOTAM was proposed by the authorities for the full closure of runway operations on the first two working days until October this year.
"Airlines will continue to update their schedules in accordance with the prevailing operational timings," the spokesperson said.
Travellers have been advised to check the flight status with their respective airlines before proceeding to the airport and to rely only on official sources for verified updates.
