Air India Flight Makes Mid-Air U-turn Due to Technical Snag

Air India's flight AI388, destined for Ho Chi Minh City from Delhi, made a mid-flight return on Thursday as a precaution. This decision was taken following a technical snag encountered by the aircraft, sources revealed.

The Airbus A320 neo landed safely back in the national capital, and all 130-plus passengers disembarked without incident, the airline confirmed.

An alternative aircraft, complete with a fresh crew, has been organized to continue the passengers' journey. However, Air India has not specified the exact departure time for the replacement flight.
