Mumbai: Scenes of agitation were witnessed after IndiGo flight 6E 2441 from Lucknow to Mumbai was diverted to Udaipur on Tuesday afternoon after the pilot failed to land in Mumbai. The flight returned to Mumbai only at 8 pm, after the pilot was changed on account of passengers creating a ruckus at Udaipur Airport.
The flight departed from Lucknow Airport at 11.10 am and was scheduled to land in Mumbai at 1.15 pm. However, the aircraft did two go-arounds before the pilot decided to divert to Udaipur airport. Although the airline blamed bad weather for the diversion, the passengers claimed that the pilot aborted two attempts to land in Mumbai, and a third attempt to land in Udaipur before the aircraft safely touched down at Udaipur Airport.
After landing, the passengers demanded that the airline change the pilot and stayed put in the aircraft.
