Lucknow Airport Repair Work Results in Rescheduling of Flights
Starting today, several flights traveling through Lucknow’s International Airport, especially at night, will experience changes in their scheduled flight timings. This is due to the ongoing runway repairs that are expected to last for the next four months.
The CCS International Airport will be undergoing major development from the 23rd of February to the 11th of July, 2023. During this time, flights will not be available from 21:30 to 06:00 each day. To ensure better airside operational efficiency, the airport is taking essential steps to upgrade its infrastructure. We kindly ask that all passengers confirm the status of their flight with their airline before departing.
Eight flight timings were affected, with the airlines informing passengers via a message. Go Air canceled its G8-2619 and 2620 flights on February 24. IndiGo also altered the timings of its Lucknow-Kolkata flight (6E 6469) from 6 pm to 5 pm. Also, alter the timing Lucknow-Bengaluru flight (6E 6354) from 10:55 pm to 7:50 pm. Additionally, the Lucknow-Patna flight (6E 118)’s timing was changed to 8:30 pm instead of 9:50 pm, and the Lucknow-Mumbai flight (6E 2245)’s timing was altered from 9:30 pm to 9:15 pm, as per the spokesperson of the Lucknow airport.
The Lucknow airport spokesperson stated that the runway will be closed from 9:30 pm to 6 am from February 23 to July 11, and consequently, major airlines have adjusted the timing of their night flights. As a result, eight flights will be affected and two others canceled. Airlines have sent out notifications to their passengers via SMS. Currently, the airport hosts 17-night flights, of which some have already modified their timings. It is anticipated that the flight timings will be impacted until the repair work is finished, between the hours of 9:30 pm and 6 am daily.
