Cancellations Etc..are restricted and even the visual information displays are either incorrect or do not happen .We would therefore

suggest that Our associates check information on departures & arrivals with the respective airline counters / ground staff once you

check in.

Arrivals : During the last one week there have been several instances of Domestic Arrivals / passengers coming through International

arrival lounge / area and even international arrival passengers coming out through International departure area on the upper Level due

to repairs & maintenance being carried out after the un-seasonal rains ..…Associates are requested to take guidance from The Airline

personnel who will be always available on Arrival side .Airlines have also reported delays in having the Aero bridges connectivity

Upon landing at Shamshabad Airport , causing delayed disembarkation.

Immigration : Associates arriving on international flights may experience long Qs at immigration since there are limited

Staff manning the counters at times.
