Digital Desk: Commercial flight operations at Gujarat's Jamnagar airport will be suspended until Friday as a precautionary measure ahead of the landfall of Cyclone Biparjoy.
According to the Jamnagar airport director, the airport released a NOTAM for three days, from Wednesday to Friday. In addition, diesel and petrol required for operating the airport in an emergency have been stocked.
Air India and Star Air's scheduled flights have been cancelled, according to NOTAM. NOTAM stands for "Notice to Airmen," and it is issued at the airport for flights arriving from outside.
Also, there are no aeroplanes in the airport's parking area. Cyclone Biparjoy, which is currently forming in the Arabian Sea off the coast of Gujarat, is expected to make landfall later today.
