An Air India flight from Paris to New Delhi was diverted due to smog in Delhi and the pilots’ inability to perform low-visibility landings, according to reports.
The flight AI-2022 departed from Paris at 10pm on Sunday and was originally set to arrive in New Delhi at 10.35am on Monday. However, it was diverted to Jaipur – in the neighbouring state of Rajasthan – that morning due to smog in the capital, as the pilots were not certified for low-visibility landings, according to the sources.
