Nagpur: Days after two Indigo Airlines aircraft were forced to land in the dark at the Nagpur airport, two more aircraft of the airlines were grounded here on Thursday. Sources in the airport said this was not due to bad weather, indicating there were some technical issues in the planes.
First, the aircraft coming from Mumbai at 1.30pm, and supposed to go back at 3.30pm, was grounded at Nagpur airport due to a snag. The airline decided to engage the aircraft supposed to fly back to Bengaluru after coming here to accommodate the Mumbai-bound passengers.
The Bengaluru flight was cancelled to do this. However, even the Bengaluru aircraft is reported to have developed a technical snag, and was grounded here itself.
Finally, the passengers were flown to Mumbai by a third flight of Indigo Airlines that was supposed to take off from Nagpur at around 4pm.
The entire week remained turbulent for Nagpur airport. The week was marked by cancellations and diversions due to bad weather.
