Vistara Airlines has taken swift action to rescue its stranded passengers in Turkey by dispatching an alternative aircraft with a fresh crew. The move comes after the airline's Mumbai-Frankfurt flight was diverted to Erzurum Airport on Friday due to an alleged bomb threat. The original aircraft, carrying 247 passengers and crew, was safely grounded, and arrangements have been made to ensure the continued journey of all on board.
According to Vistara's latest update on X (formerly Twitter), the substitute aircraft is scheduled to arrive at Erzurum Airport by 12:25 local time. Following a swift turnaround, the flight will depart for Frankfurt with all passengers by 14:30 local time.
This prompt response by Vistara aims to minimize disruption and ensure the safe and comfortable passage of its passengers to their destination. The airline's proactive measures demonstrate its commitment to customer care and safety amidst unforeseen circumstances.
