More Dubai-bound flights from India hit by delays, cancellations
Flight disruptions on the India–Dubai route continued on Wednesday, compounding the frustration of hundreds of travellers already grappling with recurring delays and operational snags. In the latest incident, an Air India Express flight from Lucknow to Dubai was cancelled on Wednesday morning after a technical fault was detected. Flight IX 193, scheduled to depart at 8.45am from Chaudhary Charan Singh International Airport, was carrying 160 passengers and eight crew members. The pilot reportedly noticed the issue after starting the engine and promptly alerted airline officials and air traffic control. 'They tried to fix the issue, but it couldn't be resolved, forcing the airline to cancel the flight,' said R. Khan, a passenger travelling with his family. Flight tracking data confirms the cancellation. Khan added that some passengers were accommodated in hotels, while others were offered refunds or assured seats on alternative flights. On the same day (Wednesday) fresh delays hit Jaipur International Airport. SpiceJet's flight SG 57 to Dubai, scheduled to take off at 9.30am, was delayed by more than seven hours and eventually departed at 4.35pm. The delay was attributed to the late arrival of the inbound aircraft, SG 58, from Dubai, which itself had departed nearly six hours behind schedule. The disruptions come just days after Khaleej Times reported a string of delays on the Jaipur–Dubai route over the weekend, with passengers on some flights waiting for up to nine hours.
