Delhi's Indira Gandhi International Airport announced that all flights operating from Terminal 2 will shift to Terminal 1 starting next week on April 15 due to major maintenance and runway upgrade work.
The move, led by Delhi International Airport Ltd. or DIAL, is part of efforts to enhance infrastructure and improve passenger experience. Airlines have begun issuing travel advisories, with passengers advised to check updated schedules as the runway work may lead to delays or rescheduling.
“Effective 15th April 2025 (0001 hrs), all flights currently operating from Terminal 2 will shift to Terminal 1 until further notice. This change is due to planned maintenance work at Terminal 2, which will remain non-operational during this period.
