Flights Cancelled: IndiGo and Air India announced the cancellation of all flights to and from nine airports across North and West India for today, May 13, 2025. The affected airports include Jammu, Amritsar, Chandigarh, Leh, Srinagar, Jodhpur, Jamnagar, Bhuj, and Rajkot.
The airlines cited renewed safety concerns as the primary reason for this abrupt suspension of services. This development follows a brief resumption of civilian flights on Monday after a temporary shutdown that began on May 7 due to heightened military tensions between India and Pakistan.
In a statement, IndiGo emphasized that “passenger safety remains its highest priority” and expressed regret for the inconvenience caused to travelers. The airline assured passengers that its teams are “closely monitoring the situation.”
Air India confirmed the cancellations and echoed IndiGo’s commitment to passenger safety.
The nine affected airports were among the 32 airports in North, West, and Central India that had been closed for commercial operations since May 7. These airports had only reopened at 10:30 am on Monday following a ceasefire between India and Pakistan.
The list of 32 airports that were temporarily shut down and subsequently reopened on Monday included Srinagar, Jammu, Leh, Chandigarh, Amritsar, Bikaner, Hindon, Jaisalmer, Jodhpur, Kandla, Kishangarh, Kullu Manali (Bhuntar), Ludhiana, Rajkot (Hirasar), and Shimla, among others.
Passengers scheduled to travel to or from the nine affected cities today are strongly advised to check their flight status via the respective airline’s website or mobile application before proceeding to the airport. IndiGo has also urged affected travelers to reach out through call or message for support and assistance regarding their bookings.
