According to the statement, all Delhi Terminal 2 flights will be shifted to Terminal 1 due to ongoing maintenance. The airline is contacting passengers and their travel agents via SMS, calls, and emails to inform them of the change. Travelers are advised to check their PNR on the airline’s website or mobile app to confirm their departure or arrival terminal before heading to the airport.
DIAL is currently conducting trials to enable seamless trader of check-in baggage between Terminal 3 (T3), which handles international flights and the all-domestic flights of Terminal 1. This initiative is aimed at simplifying the passengers journey with domestic to international or international-to-domestic connections.
There is no air train system linking T1 and T3, and making terminal transfer challenging. To address this, DIAL plans to facilitate airside transfer of baggage between terminals.
