MUMBAI: At least 11 flights were diverted and several more delayed on Monday evening at the Mumbai's Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport and operations temporarily suspended due to heavy rainfall, an airport spokesperson said. Several domestic and international flights were diverted from the Mumbai airport, including United Airway's flight between New York and Mumbai, which was diverted to New Delhi. Vistara, a joint venture between Tata Sons and Singapore Airlines, diverted flight number UK 985 from Delhi to Mumbai to Ahmedabad due to the weather.
