Air India Prepares for Fog Season
Air India is getting ready for the fog season, which happens from December 10, 2025, to February 10, 2026.
During this time, thick fog can make it hard for planes to fly in northern India, especially around Delhi.
Air India is taking steps to make sure flights run smoothly.
They are training more pilots to handle low visibility, using special planes that can fly in foggy conditions, and making sure there are enough staff to help passengers.
They will also send updates to passengers through messages and emails.
If flights are delayed or canceled because of the fog, passengers can choose to reschedule their flights or get a full refund without any extra charges.
Air India wants to make sure everyone has a smooth travel experience during the foggy months.
Air India has activated a fog-season plan to reduce passenger inconvenience from December 10, 2025, to February 10, 2026.
The airline is coordinating with stakeholders and implementing operational measures across its network.
Air India will deploy CAT III B-certified aircraft and trained crew to handle low-visibility conditions.
Passengers will receive care packages, refreshments, and rebooking assistance at origin and diversion airports.
Air India has strengthened its Customer Contact Centre and will provide real-time updates through various communication channels.
