The minister had instructed airlines to "resume normal schedules from Thursday (May 15) across all 32 airports" that reopened on Monday morning following a six-day closure.

Naidu had earlier this week met with all airlines on Tuesday and urged them to increase operations. The notice to airmen (NOTAM) for the temporary shutdown of 25 segments of air traffic service routes in the Delhi and Mumbai flight information zones was effective till 5.29 AM on Thursday.

All aviation routes in the north and west will be open after this NOTAM expires. Airlines have been instructed to resume regular operations once all 32 airports are operational.
