Airport ’22: Chaos and delays in Delhi, Mumbai

Unprecedented delays and chaos at Delhi airports are leading to business travels being deferred, weekend trips being cancelled, and people opting for driving to short distances or for train travel, executives said.

Surge in the number of travellers post-pandemic, prolonged security check-in protocols, and many counters remaining unmanned due to lack of staff are leading to delays and clogging up are leading to many people missing flights and scuffles among passengers not just at Delhi airports but at Mumbai airport as well.
