Some passengers of a Vistara flight from Dubai were taken to the domestic terminal of the Mumbai airport after landing without completing immigration process on Sunday, while the airline said operating procedures will be tightened to prevent such incidents in the future. International passengers arriving at Indian airports are compulsorily required to undergo immigration process and the latest incident is an apparent security violation.
A Vistara spokesperson, in a statement, said few passengers were “erroneously” taken to the domestic arrivals instead of international arrivals and that these passengers were later taken to the designated terminal to complete the international arrival formalities.
