Air India’s Bengaluru-Bound Flight Delayed As Pilot Faces Medical Emergency

“There was a medical emergency involving one of our pilots in the early hours of 04 July. As a result, the pilot was unable to operate flight AI2414 from Bengaluru to Delhi, for which he was rostered, and was taken to a local hospital immediately. He is currently stable but remains under the supervision of doctors at the same hospital”, an Air India spokesperson was quoted as saying by news agency ANI.

Consequently, AI2414 was delayed and operated by another member of our cockpit crew, the airline added. “Our immediate priority is to assist the pilot and his family to ensure his speedy recovery.”
