On July 6, Air India flight AI 926, operating from Riyadh to Delhi, was diverted to Jaipur International Airport late due to adverse weather conditions in the national capital.

The flight was originally scheduled to land at Delhi's Indira Gandhi International Airport (IGI) at around 1 am on July 7. However, inclement weather in Delhi forced the aircraft to be rerouted to Jaipur.

According to sources, after the landing at Jaipur, passengers were offered alternative flight options to reach Delhi. However, they opted for road transportation instead.

Earlier on July 4, an Air India flight from Bengaluru to Delhi was delayed after a medical emergency involving one of its pilots. Flight AI2414 was set to depart on schedule, but the rostered pilot fell ill just before takeoff and was immediately taken to a local hospital.

In a statement, an Air India spokesperson confirmed the incident, saying, 'There was a medical emergency involving one of our pilots in the early hours of 04 July. As a result, the pilot was unable to operate the flight AI2414 from Bengaluru to Delhi, which he was rostered for, and was taken to a local hospital immediately.

'Consequently, AI2414 was delayed and operated by another member of our cockpit crew', the statement noted.

On July 2, Air India cancelled its New Delhi to Washington DC flight after a technical issue during a routine stopover in Vienna.

The onward Vienna-Washington segment was cancelled, and all passengers were disembarked in Vienna.

The disruption also led to the cancellation of the return flight AI104 from Washington, DC to Delhi via Vienna. Air India stated that affected passengers have been rebooked on alternate services or offered full refunds, depending on their preferences.
