Srinagar: The air-traffic to and fro Kashmir was restored on Saturday after remaining suspended for seven consecutive days due to poor visibility caused by heavy fog and snowfall in the valley, officials said.
"The flight operations resumed this (Saturday) afternoon after seven days, an official of the Airports Authority of India (AAI) said.
He said a SpiceJet flight landed at the Srinagar airport around 12:15 pm and then took off around 1 pm.
The official said while the morning flights were cancelled due to poor visibility, the afternoon flights are scheduled to operate at the airport in view of the improving weather conditions.
