An Air India Airbus A320 operating a domestic service from Kochi (Kerala) to Mumbai (Maharashtra) overshot the runway during landing in heavy rain, a spokesperson for the Indian carrier told the press on Monday.
The incident occurred after the aircraft had already made contact with the runway surface. All passengers and crew disembarked safely, and no injuries were reported. The spokesperson added that the aircraft has been temporarily taken out of service and will undergo the necessary technical inspections.
Mumbai’s Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport reported minor damage to the main runway as a result of the mishap. To ensure uninterrupted operations, a secondary runway was activated. Both the airport authorities and airline have launched an investigation into the circumstances surrounding the incident.
