Mumbai Airport Runway Construction...

Hi there,

I received this..
----------------------
Mumbai, Oct 18: Passengers flying in and out of the nation's financial capital should brace for long delays from Tuesday till the end of November as the only runway of the nation's second busiest airport will be shut for five hours for repair work.

Operations will be partly hit between October 18 and 31 for four hours between 1200 hrs and 1600 hrs for seven days on alternate days, as the main runway (Runway No 09-27) will be closed for surface repair.

But operations will be completely shut for five hours from 1200 hrs to 1700 hrs in the second phase beginning October 31 through November 28 as both the main and the secondary runways will be closed, the official said, adding this is needed as the repair work involves inter-section work.

In total between October 31 and November 28, both the runways will be closed for five hours on Mondays and Thursdays, while in the first phase the main runway will be closed for four hours on seven days, the official said.

To avert delays and inconvenience to passengers, most of the airlines have started alternative plan of action.

What are the chances that my Jet airways flight to Delhi @ 02:50 AM
on 24th will leave on time ? I have a connection to KTM from DEL
with 2 hr layover...

What alternate arrangement can I proactively make ? Thanks in
advance for your suggestions.

F.A.
