NEW DELHI: An Air India Boeing 787 (VT-ANI) operating from Tokyo Haneda to Delhi on Sunday safely diverted to Kolkata due to persistent air-conditioning trouble, due to which the cabin was uncomfortably hot. The flight AI357 had taken off from Tokyo at 12.31 pm and landed in Kolkata at 3.33 pm (all timings local) as far flight tracking sites.

An Air India spokesperson said: “Air India flight AI357 operating from Haneda to Delhi on June 29, 2025, made a precautionary diversion to Kolkata due to persistent warm temperature experienced in the cabin. The aircraft landed safely into Kolkata and is currently undergoing checks.”

“Our ground colleagues in Kolkata are providing all necessary support to passengers to minimise the inconvenience caused by this unforeseen diversion. Alternative arrangements are being made to fly our passengers to Delhi at the earliest. We regret the inconvenience caused to our passengers,” the spokesperson added.
