Another Air India flight to London canceled again in Ahmedabad


An Air India flight from Ahmedabad to London was canceled on Tuesday due to a suspected technical glitch.

Per reports, flight AI 159, a Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner, was supposed to leave at 1:10pm but was grounded hours before takeoff after the issue was detected.

The glitch was reportedly found during routine checks, preventing a potential disaster and ensuring passenger safety.

"The flight from Ahmedabad to Gatwick [London] will be re-numbered to AI 159. The return flight too will be changed to AI160. The change will start to reflect soon," an official told Hindustan Times.
