Earlier, the carrier had acknowledged that the disruption had caused delays across several airlines, including Air India. It said its airport teams were working diligently to ensure a smooth check-in experience for passengers. The carrier also noted that while the system was being restored progressively, some flights might continue to face delays until the situation completely stabilised.
A similar incident occurred last month when more than 400 domestic and international flights were delayed due to a technical issue in the Automatic Message Switching System at Indira Gandhi International Airport in Delhi.The disruption affected major airlines, including Air India, Indigo, and SpiceJet, causing long queues and slower operations. The fault was detected in the IP-based AMSS system, prompting a review meeting chaired by the Secretary of Ministry of Civil Aviation (MoCA), along with senior officials from AAI and ANS, after which necessary directions were issued to resolve the problem.
