A Pune bound GoAir flight was diverted to Mumbai because of Air Force movement, the airline confirmed on Thursday.
“Flight G8 173, Delhi-Pune was diverted to Mumbai because of Air Force movement at Pune airspace. Anticipating that there could be a delayed landing, the crew decided to divert the flight to Mumbai for refueling as a safety measure,” read a statement from GoAir.
Soon after the air traffic got clear, the flight took off from Mumbai at 12.30 pm.
