No flights will operate during the day at Lucknow Airport for four-and-a-half months. The flight services will remain suspended between 10 AM and 6 PM from March 1 till July 15, and will only land and take off at night.
The decision was taken by the Airport Authorities due to runway repairs at Chaudhary Charan Singh International (CCSI) Airport. Sources said that around 80 flights will be affected daily.
The work will be carried out on the runway daily from 10 AM to 6 PM. Sources said that the airline operators have changed flight schedules, while refunds will be issued for tickets of 20,000 passengers.
According to reports, the existing runway was last recarpeted in 2018. It is now undergoing upgrades to enhance texture, friction, strength, and operational efficiency.
The 2,744-meter-long, 45-meter-wide runway, with 7.5-meter shoulders on each side, will be resurfaced to meet regulatory standards. The project will cover 1.80 lakh square meters, including taxiways, reports stated.
