US EditionAir India Flight From Tokyo to Delhi Diverted to Kolkata — Here's Why
- On June 29, 2025, Air India flight AI357, operating a Boeing 787 route between Haneda Airport in Tokyo and Delhi, was diverted to Kolkata due to consistently high cabin temperatures and landed there without incident.
- This diversion followed a precautionary air return on June 27, 2025, when flight AI639 from Mumbai to Chennai turned back because the crew detected a burning smell inside the cabin.
- Flight AI2354 to Bangkok was delayed by more than three hours on June 27 when a bird's nest was discovered inside the plane's wing just before departure from Mumbai’s main international airport.
- Air India stated that the diversions and delays were implemented as a safety precaution, and their staff in Kolkata are actively supporting affected passengers with alternate travel options to ensure they reach Delhi without undue delay.
- These consecutive incidents underscore the necessity for careful flight surveillance and swift action plans to effectively handle technical issues in the air and ensure passenger safety.
