Passengers' fight forces flight from Dubai to make emergency landing in Mumbai

July 28, 2016

Mumbai, Jul 28: A Kozhikode-bound Indigo flight from Dubai made an emergency landing in Mumbai due to unruly behaviour of passengers onboard on Thursday, according to media reports.

The Mumbai Airport police detained the two passengers soon after the landing. The airlines has complained of passengers fighting onboard.

According to sources, a fight erupted between two passengers after one among them started to talk about ISIS, a middle east based dreaded terror outfit.

A media report claimed that the man, who is suspected to be a Keralite, started speaking for the ISIS and its ideals when the flight was airborne.

He refused to yield to the requests from co-passengers to stop. Finally, he was overpowered by a fellow passenger.

The detained passengers are being interrogated by the CISF at Mumbai airport. More details are awaited.

jaathi buddi yelli hogatte ... put him to jail for shouting Pro jihadist slogans .. haha one his ummah third rated fellow is giving long lecture ...

The story may be a different :
First of all the passenger I believe they are Muslims.
Secondly if two persons sitting together and if they talk anything
how others will come to know. Anyone talks loudly?
Thirdly talking about ISIS is a crime??? we always talk about these terrorists group and their killing innocents etc. Is this crime??
Even though if we assume they are supporters of ISIS , are they crazy to support and talk in public??

The reason may be different, simply to make this issue a big , the airlines crew made this drama.
WE ALL EVEN LOUDLY AND WITH ALL OUR SPIRIT SHOULD SAY
THAT THE ISIS IS A MOST DANGEROUS , CRUEL AND ANTI HUMAN TERRORIST ORGANIZATION AND WE SHOULD DO ALL OUT WAR AGAINST THESE DEADLY TERRORISTS.

send this ISIS lover to Iraq / Syria and let him enjoy there. such people are burden to our society. If he is so much interested in ISIS he should join them and no need to come to India.

December 15,2025

Mangaluru, Dec 15: Air India Express has announced that it will resume direct flight services between Mangaluru and Muscat from March 2026, restoring an important international air link for passengers from the coastal region.

Airport authorities said the service will operate twice a week—on Sundays and Tuesdays—from March 1. The initial flights are scheduled on March 3, 8 and 10, followed by March 15 and 17, with the same operating pattern to continue thereafter. The flight duration is approximately three hours and 25 minutes.

The Mangaluru–Muscat route was earlier operated under the 2025 summer schedule, with services beginning on July 14. At that time, Air India Express had operated four flights a week before suspending the service.

Officials said the summer schedule will come into effect from March 29, after which changes in flight timings and departure schedules from Mangaluru are expected. Passengers have been advised to check the latest schedules while planning their travel.

The resumption of direct flights to Muscat is expected to significantly benefit expatriates, business travellers and others, further strengthening Mangaluru’s air connectivity with the Gulf region.
