Delhi Airport said operations were being conducted under CAT III instrument landing system conditions owing to poor visibility, cautioning passengers about possible delays and cancellations.

SpiceJet said that adverse weather conditions in Delhi could impact departures, arrivals, and consequential flights.
Meanwhile, Air India said weather forecasts indicated dense fog with low visibility in parts of northern India, including Delhi, on Monday morning, which was likely to affect flight operations.
Passengers were advised to check their flight status before leaving for the airport and to allow extra time for travel, as winter fog conditions often intensify during early morning hours.
