An Air India flight from Thailand’s Phuket island to New Delhi was forced to make an emergency landing Friday, June 13, shortly after takeoff because of an onboard bomb threat, the Thai airports authority said.
The incident comes a day after a London-bound Air India passenger jet crashed in the Indian city of Ahmedabad, killing at least 265 people on board and the ground.
Airports of Thailand said on its Facebook page for Phuket that the pilot of the Airbus A320 radioed air traffic control that a bomb threat message had been found on board.
Flight tracking website FlightRadar24 shows the Phuket flight making a U-turn over the Andaman Sea soon after takeoff, then circling multiple times off the island’s coast before landing, AFP reports.
