Air India’s flight AI 504 from Kochi to New Delhi suffered a delay of over an hour on Sunday night (August 17) due to a technical snag. The scheduled take-off of the flight at 10.34 p.m. was aborted due to this.
The matter came to light after Ernakulam MP Hibi Eden posted on social media that the aircraft in which he was travelling with family seemed to have skidded off the runway while attempting to take off. “Something unusual with this flight AI 504... it just felt like the flight skidded on the runway... and hasn’t taken off yet,” he posted on Facebook.
