Passengers at the Chandigarh Airport were a harried lot today as various airline operators called off their Mumbai-bound flights owing to incandescent rains there.

It was on Monday night that Spice Jet Jaipur-Mumbai aircraft carrying 167 odd passengers skidded off the runway due to heavy downpour while landing at the Mumbai airport.

According to information, Air India has cancelled its 8:30 am Mumbai flight and GoAir also cancelled its 11 am Mumbai flight. Airline operators said they had informed the passengers about the cancellation of flights.
