Goa-Lucknow IndiGo flight faced mid-air turbulence, landed safely: Airline
The flight 6E 6811 landed safely in Lucknow, the airline said without divulging further details.
"IndiGo flight 6E 6811 from North Goa to Lucknow on June 16, experienced turbulence momentarily due to prevailing active monsoon weather conditions in western India," the airline said.
It further said its pilots and cabin crew, trained to handle such situations, followed "established protocols" to ensure customer safety.
Last month, a Srinagar-bound IndiGo flight from Delhi with 227 passengers, including a delegation of TMC MPs, on board encountered sudden hailstorm, prompting the pilot to report the "emergency" to air traffic control at Srinagar. All passengers deplaned safely but the nose of the aircraft was damaged.

Air India Shifts Ahmedabad Flights From Gatwick To Heathrow From August 1
Mumbai: Air India on Tuesday said it will operate three weekly flights from Ahmedabad to Heathrow, London, from August 1 to September 30, replacing Gatwick, London. The airline currently operates five weekly flights on the Ahmedabad-London Gatwick route. Besides, Air India also announced the partial restoration of schedules that were reduced following its decision to observe a "Safety Pause", in the aftermath of the June 12 Boeing 787-8 plane crash, that killed 260 people. The partial resumption will see restoration of some frequencies from August 1, relative to July, with full restoration planned from October 1, Air India said. From August 1 to September 30, Air India will operate three weekly flights between Ahmedabad and London (Heathrow), replacing the currently operating five weekly flights between Ahmedabad and London (Gatwick), Air India said in a statement. On June 12, the London-bound Boeing 787 Dreamliner began to lose thrust almost immediately after taking off from the Ahmedabad airport and ploughed into a medical college hostel, killing all but one of the 242 onboard and another 19 on the ground in the deadliest aviation accident in a decade.
