Drone Sightings Disrupt Flights at Amritsar Airport (ATQ), India

Drone sightings near Sri Guru Ram Dass Jee International Airport (ATQ) in Amritsar have disrupted at least 3 flights, with potential for further diversions, delays, or a temporary ground stop as authorities investigate. Travelers transiting through or departing ATQ face rebooking exposure, and the situation may evolve rapidly given heightened regional security sensitivity near the India-Pakistan border. Travel-care teams should proactively identify affected itineraries, monitor for ATC or DGCA advisories, and prepare for duty-of-care outreach to travelers currently at or en route to ATQ.
