Delhi-Dubai SpiceJet Plane makes emergency landing in Pakistan's Karachi

|HT|

A SpiceJet plane, which took off from Delhi and was headed to Dubai, made an emergency landing in Karachi, Pakistan, on Tuesday. All passengers aboard are safe. The SpiceJet SG-11 flight had to make the emergency landing due to a technical fault. This comes just days after another flight of the airline (SG-2962) - flying from Delhi to Jabalpur in Madhya Pradesh - had to return to the airport minutes after take-off as the crew noticed smoke in the cabin. “On July 5, 2022, SpiceJet B737 aircraft operating flight SG-11 (Delhi - Dubai) was diverted to Karachi due to an indicator light malfunctioning. The aircraft landed safely at Karachi and passengers were safely disembarked," read a statement from a spokesperson.

“No emergency was declared and the aircraft made a normal landing. There was no earlier report of any malfunction with the aircraft. Passengers have been served refreshments. A replacement aircraft is being sent to Karachi that will take the passengers to Dubai,” it added.
