Air India flight which returned to Mumbai due to bomb hoax leaves for New York

MUMBAI: A New York-bound Air India flight, which had returned to Mumbai following a bomb threat, left for its destination on Tuesday morning, an official said.

The flight took off with all 303 passengers, but with a fresh set of operating crew due to the FDTL (Flight Duty Time Limitation) issue, an Air India spokesperson said.

The JFK-bound Air India flight of March 9, which was diverted back to Mumbai due to a bomb threat, departed for its destination at 5 am on Tuesday, the spokesperson said. PTI
