Refuting charges that pilots of its two flights argued mid-air overlanding, SpiceJet on Friday said at no point any rule or procedure was violated or safety compromised by the two aircraft.
"The pilots in command of the two flights meticulously followed the instructions of air traffic controller (ATC) and safety was not compromised. The pilots of these flights were never engaged in any argument or discussion to claim priority landing as alleged," a SpiceJet spokesperson said in a statement.
According to airport sources, pilots of the Delhi-Indore (SG-2326) and Hyderabad-Indore (SG-1053) flights allegedly got into a "verbal duel" on Thursday evening over who should land first.
