Srinagar Airport Lifts Operating Hour Restrictions Ahead of Winter Schedule
Srinagar International Airport has lifted its previous operating hour restrictions, allowing flights beyond 5 pm starting with the Winter Schedule 2026 on October 25. The earlier limitation from 8 am to 5 pm, imposed since April for runway work, no longer applies. Airlines are filing slots for late-evening flights to improve connectivity and passenger flexibility during winter. Passenger traffic had declined after the April 2025 Pahalgam terror attack but has grown significantly over the past decade.
