TWO months after a Chicago-Delhi Air India flight earned international notoriety due to blocked toilets, another incident occurred late last week.

This time, it involved a flight from Toronto to Delhi. Air India billed the incident as "a technical issue".

The incident happened on May 2 on board flight AI 188, a Boeing 777 aircraft carrying nearly 250 passengers. According to FlightAware, a flight tracking platform, the flight took off only at 5.53 pm (local time) from Toronto, a delay of 5 hours and 38 minutes. The non-stop flight was airborne when it was diverted to Frankfurt.

The problem surfaced mid-air, forcing the diversion. The clogged toilets were rectified at Frankfurt, and the flight took off two hours later for Delhi.
