Srinagar Airport Flight Cancellations: All Operations Suspended Due to Persistent Snowfall

Srinagar, January 23, 2026: In a significant update for air travelers, the Srinagar National Authority has announced the cancellation of all flight operations at Srinagar Airport for the remainder of the day.

This decision comes as a direct result of continuous heavy snowfall, which has led to substantial snow accumulation on the runways and other critical operational areas.

According to a statement posted on X (formerly Twitter), the authority cited both the local ground conditions and the prevailing adverse weather forecasts along flight routes as the primary reasons for the suspension, emphasizing that the move is strictly in the interest of passenger safety.

The airport management has urged all affected passengers to avoid traveling to the terminal and instead contact their respective airlines for real-time updates regarding flight re-accommodation or refund options.

While expressing regret for the unavoidable inconvenience caused by the wintry weather, officials maintained that clearing operations are being monitored closely to resume services as soon as conditions permit.

Travelers are encouraged to use official airline apps and helpdesk numbers to manage their bookings during this disruption.
