The Chennai airport resumed flight operations on Tuesday following a temporary shutdown due to torrential rainfall and heavy winds caused by Cyclone Michaung.

In a statement, the Airports Authority of India (AAI) said arrivals and departures at the airport resumed from 9:00 am on Tuesday as rain stopped and water receded.

“No water stagnation on RWYs (runways) and TWYs (taxiways). However, a lot of slush/filth is found. 4 CFTs (crash fire tenders) are deployed for clearing the same, and manpower is also engaged in cleaning work,” it added.
