Fog in Delhi?

cover point · Dec 29, 08, 6:39 pm

anyone has flown into Delhi over the last few days?

I am flying AA 292 to Delhi which is supposed to get into Delhi around 9:45 PM. Should i expect to be delayed?

Also returning in mid Jan on AA 293 which leaves around 12:45 or so ... is that getting impacted with fog delays?

Getting in should not be too much of a problem for the flights you mention. Getting out is more likely to be subjected to delays but each day is a somewhat different story.

Fogging delays worsen sharply after midnight. Lufthansa flights, arriving at 1:30 a.m., suffer more from fog delays than KLM, CO, or AF . Your arrival flight would be OK, but departure could be delayed dpending on tghe weather that day.

You fly out of DEL and ATQ often enough to know the answer to that

Prepare for a nice, long delay.

LH760 (FRA-DEL) has a 555 minute delay right now

I know. Just checked flight stats and

Flight: (9W) Jet Airways (India) 547
Date: Dec 29, 2008
Status: Landed 653 minutes late

Flight: (9W) Jet Airways (India) 547
Date: Dec 28, 2008
Status: Landed 698 minutes late

Both times the flight has left on time from DXB. Is it being diverted somewhere else?

Apparently my LH760 inbound aircraft has had to land in Moscow to stop the crew going illegal.

AMR747 · Dec 30, 08, 2:45 pm

According to lh.com the aircraft diverted to MAA not MOW.
Does anybody have any info ?

LH 760 30 DEC is delayed till 11pm today to land a 'little' later in DEL and avoid the fog altogether.

LH-760 / 30DEC is still in FRA (it is 11.30pm in FRA) so over 10 hrs late.

AMR747 · Dec 30, 08, 4:39 pm

Does anyone know why LH-760/29DEC FRA-DEL diverted to MAA and not to closer LH stations such as BOM, CCU, HYD, BLR ?
