DATIS Posted by on May 4, 2012

Is there anyway to get BIAL DATIS on the phone ? Delhi has this facility and it is really useful especially when the weather / visibility is marginal and you want to keep track while at home or on the way to the airport. Delhi ATIS is available through IVR on tele no. 011-25653081. Thanks
Raghavan.
