Plane crash: Air India Express hires US-based firm to recover baggage
Air India Express said on Monday that it has contracted a US-based company to recover and restore the baggage of the crew and passengers of its plane that crashed in Kozhikode.
The airline’s flight from Dubai with 190 people overshot the tabletop runway while landing amid heavy rain at the Kozhikode airport on Friday night, fell into a valley 35 feet below and broke into two, killing 18 people, including the pilots.
Air India Express said in a statement that Kenyon International specialises in recovery of baggage in case of a major accident.
“Their expertise lies in identification of baggage with their specialised services through advanced technology,” it said.
