Mumbai: The threat of another pilots' stir in Air India loomed large on Saturday, as one of its international flight was cancelled and two more delayed by over 16 hours after a section of pilots reported sick, apparently to protest rescheduling of Boeing 787 Dreamliner training programme.
While a flight to Singapore from Delhi (AI-380), scheduled at 0005 hours tomorrow, was cancelled, two services to New York (AI-101) and Toronto (AI-187), slated at 0145 hours and 0215 hours on Saturday, were delayed by over 16 hours, airport sources said.
"The flights are affected as the pilots did not report duty, citing health problems," an Air India official said, confirming the development.
