Airport is north part of the city while the trouble was in the southern tip
you should have no problems
only you could ask for the airport staff to route you from the
international airport to domestic airport through INSIDE route (which
is 3-4 kms away though they share the same infrastructure internally)
rather than OUTSIDE so that you dont have to come out of the airport.
even if you have to should be ok, since early morning you will make the
journey in 10 mts.
so basically should be fine. also the situation is now fully under control
take care
see you soon
