IndiGo Flight Diverted Due to Birds at Pune Airport
Imagine a plane trying to land in Pune, but there were birds near the runway.
This made it unsafe to land, so the plane had to go to another airport, Surat, instead.
The plane flew around Pune for a bit, waiting, but it didn't have enough fuel to wait longer, so it had to go.
This happened because birds were in the way.
No one from the airline or airport has made a statement about the event.
An IndiGo flight from Delhi to Pune was diverted to Surat due to bird activity.
The flight, scheduled to land at 6:45 AM, hovered near Pune airport for about 20 minutes.
The aircraft, an A-320, carried over 100 passengers.
The diversion was due to the presence of birds near the Pune airport runway.
IndiGo and the Pune airport director did not respond to inquiries.
