Chandigarh-Lucknow IndiGo Flight Cancelled After Facing Technical Snag
Last Updated: This comes only a few days after an IndiGo flight from Guwahati to Chennai was forced to divert to Bengaluru after the pilot issued a 'fuel mayday' call due to insufficient fuel. A Lucknow-bound IndiGo flight from Chandigarh was cancelled on Sunday after the pilot detected a technical snag during pre-flight checks, reported ANI, citing sources. The passengers of the flight that was scheduled to take off from Chandigarh were deplaned safely. 'The issue was identified prior to departure, and the aircraft did not proceed with takeoff. The affected passengers were either accommodated on alternate flights or offered a full refund," according to the ANI sources. This comes only a few days after an IndiGo flight from Guwahati to Chennai was forced to divert to Bengaluru after the pilot issued a 'fuel mayday' call due to insufficient fuel in the plane. The incident reportedly took place on Thursday. According to ANI sources, the diversion was necessary as Chennai airport was facing heavy air traffic. 'The diversion occurred because of congestion at Chennai airport, which prevented the aircraft from landing there in time. Passengers were on board during the emergency reroute," they said. The aircraft landed safely at Bengaluru airport at 8:15 PM, where arrangements were made to ensure passengers' comfort during the unscheduled stop. 'During the refuelling process, passengers were provided refreshments, and their baggage was offloaded. Due to Flight Duty Time Limitations (FDTL), the airline had to arrange for a fresh crew," sources added. The flight resumed its journey and subsequently departed for Chennai at 10:24 PM.

Lucknow-Bound IndiGo Flight Cancelled After Pilot Finds 'Technical Issue'
Last Updated: The problem in the Lucknow-bound IndiGo flight was detected before the aircraft began taxiing, and all passengers were deboarded safely. An IndiGo flight en route to Lucknow from Chandigarh was cancelled after the pilot identified a technical issue during pre-flight checks, marking yet another instance of flight cancellations. Flight delays or diversions have come under intense scrutiny after the devastating Air India plane crash in Ahmedabad on June 12, which killed 241 out of the 242 passengers on board, along with over 30 others on the ground. The incident took place on Friday (June 20). The problem in the Lucknow-bound IndiGo flight 6E 146 was detected before the aircraft began taxiing, and as a precautionary measure, all passengers were deboarded safely, sources told news agency ANI. The issue was identified prior to departure, and the aircraft did not proceed with takeoff. The affected passengers were either accommodated on alternate flights or offered a full refund. This happened a day after an IndiGo flight on its way to Chennai from Guwahati, carrying with 168 passengers on board, had to make an emergency landing at Kempegowda International Airport in Bengaluru after issuing a mayday call as it 'ran out of fuel". The A320 aircraft, operating as flight 6E2006, had taken off from the national capital and remained airborne for more than two hours before the issue was detected. According to data from flight tracking platform Flightradar24, the plane turned back mid-air and safely landed in Delhi. 'The incident occurred on June 19. The flight was scheduled to arrive in Chennai at about 7.45 pm, but due to bad weather in Chennai, it could not land. The pilot opted to divert the flight to Bengaluru, but realised they ran out of fuel. So, he alerted the airport with a mayday call," the airline spokesperson told PTI. On Friday, a Madurai-bound flight suffered a technical snag mid-air on Friday and returned to Chennai after flying for about 30 minutes.

Goa-Lucknow IndiGo flight faced mid-air turbulence, landed safely: Airline

All passengers deplaned safely but the nose of the aircraft was damaged.
