30 planes have once again received a bomb threat late Monday night. According to sources of news agency PTI, these include domestic and international flights of Indigo, Vistara and Air India (AI). In the last 8 days, more than 120 planes have received bomb attack threats.
An IndiGo spokesperson said on Tuesday that four of its flights received security alerts on Monday. These include 6E164 flight coming from Mangaluru to Mumbai, 6E 75 flight going from Ahmedabad to Jeddah, 6E67 flight coming from Hyderabad to Jeddah and 6E 118 coming from Lucknow to Pune.

Preparation to bring strict law to deal with threats to aircraft Union Aviation Minister Rammohan Naidu said on Monday that the names of those making such threats can be included in the ‘No Fly List’. The government is planning to amend the Aviation Safety Rules and the Suppression of Unlawful Acts against Civil Aviation Safety Act, 1982. He said, Bureau of Civil Aviation Security (BCAS) is in constant touch with the Home Ministry on this issue.
Loss of Rs 200 crore in a week due to threats On receiving information that there is a bomb in the plane, the flight is landed at the nearest airport instead of its scheduled airport. Not only does this lead to higher fuel consumption, arrangements also have to be made to re-check the aircraft, accommodate passengers in hotels and take them to their destinations.
According to a report, about Rs 3 crore is spent on all this. This week, more than 70 domestic and international flights of Vistara, Air India, Indigo, Akasa, SpiceJet, Star Air and Alliance Air have received threats. Due to threats, there has been a loss of up to Rs 200 crore so far.
Passenger who made bomb threat in Kochi detained A passenger was detained at Kochi Airport in Kerala on Monday for making a bomb threat. The threat turned out to be a rumour. The passenger was identified as Vijay Mandhayan.
