New Delhi: A glitch in the computer systems at the Mumbai International Airport on Sunday evening held up flights for several hours.
The baggage handling services of Air India and several other airlines were disrupted leading to long queues.
Passengers had to wait for hours outside gate numbers 3 and 4, as the waiting areas were over crowded resulting in long queues of passengers, along with loaded baggage trolleys, forming outside the entry gates.
Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) officials stepped in and cordoned off the entry area to avoid a stampede. The systems were eventually restored at 2 am on Monday morning, when the normal flow of traffic resumed.
Airport officials said that the glitch caused delays in some flights operating out of Mumbai, as boarding and baggage loading were delayed by many hours.
