Power glitch due to Mumbai Metro work brings int’l airport server down

Chaos reigned at the Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport (CSMIA) on Thursday, after a computer server crashed at Terminal-2 (T-2) of the airport for more than an hour, badly affecting the check-ins and other operations of many of the airlines. In an apparent consequence of the ongoing infrastructure digging works of the Mumbai Metro line in the vicinity of the CSMIA, a main cable of a major utility company snapped leading to the breakdown of a computer server at the Terminal 2 of the airport.

The computer server at the terminal T-2 breakdown led to long queues and the check-ins were done in the manual mode at the country’s second busiest airport after the one in Delhi.
