Mumbai airport check-in system fails

The check-in system at terminal 1B of the domestic airport in Mumbai collapsed on Sunday due to crashing of the server, resulting in flight delays for some time, causing inconvenience to passengers. A two minute power failure led to shutdown of check-in system.

Mumbai airport officials said fluctuation in power supply caused the problem. While power was immediately restored it took about 20-30 minutes for check-in system to start functioning.

Airline staff resorted to manual check-in of passengers during that period.Baggage handling too slowed down with one of the conveyer belts not functioning in domestic terminal 1A.
