Power issue at INIA resolved

The electricity issue at Ibrahim Nasir International Airport (INIA) has been resolved.

Associate General Manager at the Maldives Airports Company Limited (MACL), Hassan Areef told Sun Media that the power issue at INIA has been resolved and the power has been restored to the entire airport.

He said that the power outage was due to a problem with the main generator and the issue has now been resolved.

INIA has been experiencing blackouts at different parts of the airport since this morning. The issue continued to a small portion of the night as well. With the domestic terminal out of electricity, the international terminal was temporarily used for domestic flights.

Hassan said that no flights were delayed even with the power outage and no operational issues were caused.
