SpiceJet delays maiden Adampur ops over row with Delhi

SpiceJet has indefinitely postponed the launch of a maiden scheduled passenger service to Adampur as the airline is locked in an argument with the operator of Delhi Int'l airport over forced terminal reallocation, The Tribune has reported.

The capital airport ordered the airline to operate the new route to Adampur, as well as around a third of its current network from Delhi, from Terminal 2 due to the congestion of the main domestic Terminal 1. SpiceJet has defied this order and as of now still operates all its Delhi flights from Terminal 1, the ch-aviation schedules module shows.

IndiGo Airlines, which has received a similar order from the Delhi airport authorities, has challenged it in a court. Pending the appeal, the Delhi High Court confirmed the airport's decision, giving the airline until mid-February to partially switch terminals. GoAir moved its operations at the Indian capital to Terminal 2 in Autumn last year.
