NEW DELHI:

In the wake of the fatal crash of Air India's Boeing 787-8 plane in Ahmedabad on Thursday, the DCGA on Friday ordered enhanced safety checks of the aircraft fleet.

Air India has 33 Boeing 787-8/9 planes.

"Some of these checks could lead to higher turnaround time and potential delays on certain long-haul routes, especially those to airports with operating curfews. Customers will be duly notified about any delays," the airline said in a post on X.

The airline said it is in the process of completing the one-time safety checks directed by DGCA.

"These checks are being carried out on the Boeing 787 fleet as they return to India, before being cleared for their next operation," it added.
