NEW DELHI: A GoAir flight winging its way from Bangalore to Delhi on Friday suffered cabin pressurisation snag and had to divert to the nearest airport, Nagpur, where the Airbus A320 landed safely.
A senior DGCA official said: “GoAir A320 aircraft (VT-WAF) while operating flight G8-7001 has diverted to Nagpur due to pressurization snag. Aircraft landed safely at Nagpur.” The DGCA is probing the snag.
