Air India flight always has a reason to cancel

LUDHIANA: Nothing seems to be working in favour of the sole Air India flight between Ludhiana and Delhi. In the absence of Doppler Very-High-Frequency (DVOR), visibility remains poor most of the times during winters and when visibility gives a pass, the flight remains grounded due to operational reasons.

On Wednesday AI cancelled flight 9803 due to operational reasons. Though visibility was good enough for take off at around 12pm passengers could not board the flight as the authorities had cancelled the flight in the morning itself.

Amrik Singh, an AI manager, said, "It was due to operational reasons that we cancelled the flight on Wednesday. The visibility was low in the morning and the flight was supposed to get delayed."
