left luggage at DEL domestic: what hours?

All kinds of web pages say that the airport has a left luggage facility (in the parking lot area of each terminal) but none of them say what the hours are. I didn't find a thread here with this information either.

We're landing at the international terminal at 8:30pm from Chicago and need to get to the domestic terminal and leave luggage there (since our next flight three days later is domestic). So it may well be past 11pm, and even later if the flight is late. I realize late hours are entirely normal at the international terminal, but maybe the domestic terminal facilities close at some point? Specifically I need to know about left luggage.

Many thanks,

I assume (but don't take my word for it) they'll be open 24/7. See http://www.airportsindia.org.in/igi/...cilities.jsp#2 (site open during business hours but seems to be improving).

I did see that web page, but they don't list hours. They list the charge for keeping the suitcase for 24 hours, but that may not mean they are open all 24 hours.

Assuming they want business I'd expect them to be open at least during incoming flights. But no you can't sue me if they don't.

If a number is listed somewhere calling them could be an option?

It is open 24/7. This is confirmed. The number of the airport manager at the domestic terminal (1A - Indian / Kingfisher is 25696150 and 1B - other private airlines is 25675315). They'll help you in case you have any issues.

The whole point is, there are no domestic incoming flights after some point. The question was about the domestic terminal. So the fact that I arrived on an incoming international flight is not relevant.

wdp4, many thanks for the confirmation and for the phone numbers!
