The Delhi-Kanpur flight will now operate as scheduled for December 10.
The clearance that was awaited from Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) for operating the flight between the two destinations has come. The concern before the DGCA was bad weather, especially fog which reduces the visibility.
The civil aviation ministry has also given nod for operating the flight. Air India has agreed to operate its 72-seater plane between Delhi and Kanpur.
Two days ago, the fate of the plane whether it will land at Chakeri Airport or not was not clear due to bad weather, sources told TOI.
