NEW DELHI: The Delhi international airport is leaving no stone unturned in its preparation to resume services of commercial domestic flights. Along with intensive sanitisation of utilities such as washrooms, terminal buildings and various other passenger touchpoints, airport authorities have also developed and put installed facilities to disinfect trays, baggage and trolleys.

The used trolleys and trays can be passed one after another, where each of them shall take approximately five seconds to come out virus-free. DIAL has also installed a UV tunnel at Terminal 3 of the Delhi Airport that will help in disinfection of passenger bags. A live CCTV feed of UV scanning process mounted at Baggage Reclaim hall allows the passengers to see the disinfecting process, in which high-intensity UV lamps are being used for on-line disinfection of their bags.
