Fog in Agra on Mon? Astraeus diverted
Hello,
Not sure if this is the right place to post this, but here goes...
My parents were on an Astraeus flight to Agra on this Monday, the 20th of Feb, departing at 3pm ish from LGW (I'm sorry - I've searched and searched but can't find exact flight number details anywhere), and arriving at about 6am local time the following day.
However I got a distressed phone call from them yesterday, saying they'd been forced to land in Ahmadabad (400 miles away!) because of fog at Agra. They were being put up four to a room in a local hotel, and as far as I know haven't yet reached Agra, but road or by air.
I did a search yesterday for weather conditions in Agra, and it seemed to be pretty clear. I know that fog can be very localised, but I just wondered why they would land so far away, when Delhi and Jaipur, (and several others) are much nearer? Does anyone know? Is there more to this than meets the eye?
Thanks very much.
