Passenger Alert – Check Flight Status Before Coming to the Airport

Operational Update

Following January 3rd flight disruptions, airport operations are back to normal operations.

Passengers with confirmed scheduled flights are advised to arrive on time. Passenger Flow Control measures remain in effect, and the airport may be busier than usual as previously cancelled flights are being accommodated today in close coordination with airline partners and airport authorities, in a safe and secure manner.

Passengers traveling with carry-on luggage only, who already have their boarding pass and are within the airline check-in window, may proceed directly to the Immigration checkpoint. These passengers do not need to check in or enter the check-in hall. This measure is in place to support smooth passenger flow and reduce congestion inside the terminal.

Passengers whose flights were cancelled, as well as travelers without a confirmed flight, are strongly advised not to come to the airport and to contact their airline directly for rebooking and travel arrangements.

Passengers are encouraged to check directly with their airline and visit
