In a significant step aimed at tightening aviation safety oversight, the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) has instructed Air India to relieve three officials, including a divisional vice president, from all duties related to crew scheduling and rostering.
Reuters reported on Thursday that Air India expects to face around $600 million in additional costs if the ban from Pakistan's airspace lasts for a year, and has asked the federal government to compensate it for the hit.
An estimated 1,351 flights, including those operated by Air India, were cancelled or diverted Friday after London's Heathrow airport shut down for the day.
Air India has announced that the passengers of flight Al127, which was diverted to Canada's Iqaluit on Tuesday following a bomb threat, are on their way to Chicago
Police and airport officials promptly responded to the situation, ensuring the safety of passengers and investigating the matter thoroughly
Aviation regulator DGCA has sought a report from Air India in connection with the incident
