An Air India flight operating from Mumbai to New York was diverted to Delhi on Monday (October 14, 2024) following a bomb threat, airport sources said.

“The aircraft is currently stationed at the Indira Gandhi International Airport, and all standard safety protocols are being diligently followed to ensure the safety of the passengers and crew on board,” said DCP (IGI) Usha Rangnani.

Security procedures involve taking the aircraft to an isolation bay where passengers are disembarked and taken to the airport terminal building and a multi-agency team scans the aircraft. 

Further details are awaited.
