Air India’s Boeing flight to Tokyo aborts take-off at last minute after suspected technical issue

NEW DELHI: An Air India Dreamliner light from Indira Gandhi International Airport to Tokyo International Airport (Hanida) had to be cancelled at the last minute on Monday due to a technical issue detected just before take-off.

While another aircraft was being arranged for the public, the duty hours of the crew were also drawing to a close forcing the airline to call off the trip.

AI358, a Boeing 787-8 aircraft, was scheduled to depart from Delhi at 8.50 pm on November 24.
