An Air India Express flight from Dubai to Amritsar was diverted to Karachi due to a medical emergency on Saturday.
An airline spokesperson said a passenger had a sudden medical complication onboard the flight and the crew opted to divert the flight to Karachi since it was the closest location to get immediate medical assistance.
"The airline closely coordinated with the airport and local authorities, and the guest was provided immediate medical services after landing. The airport doctor at Karachi administered the required medication, and after medical assessment, the pax [passenger] was cleared to fly by the airport medical team," the spokesperson said in a statement on Sunday.
