As a result, Flights of Air India, Jet airways and Kingfisher could make it to Leh and transport people safely from Leh to Delhi
People who have E-Tickets are facing problems in Leh as due to lack of networks of airlines, the ground staff is unable to retrieve their tickets.
As a spoke to my friend from Gujarat, he informed some of his friends landed safely due to military help in military aircrafts
