Cleaning of Air India- Flight canceled due to shortage of aircraft
Air India has clarified that AI159 from Ahmedabad to London AI159 has been canceled due to lack of aircraft, not due to technical flaws. Aircrafts are taking longer to reach their destination due to air space being banned and additional investigation.
Air India said that we are sorry about the problems that passengers have caused due to today’s flight cancellation. We have made a second flight arrangement for all passengers. At the same time, we are making arrangements to stay in their hotel. If a passenger wants to cancel the ticket, we will refund the entire money. If someone wants to have their flight resider, then we will do that too.
Along with this, Air India informed that flight number AI170 going from London to Ahmedabad will also be canceled today.
Air India renamed Ahmedabad-London Flight
After the plane crash, Air India has decided to change the number of Ahmedabad-London flight. Now it will be AI-159. The return flight will also be changed to AI-160. Earlier this flight number was AI-171.
Earlier in 2014, an airline had changed its flight number. The flight number of that route was changed to MH318 after Malasian Airlines’ flight from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing was disappeared.
