Air India Express planes grounded due to technical problems

On Friday, Air India Express had a tough time when two Surat-bound flights ran into trouble. One flight from Bangkok was grounded after a suspected bird hit, leaving about 180 people stuck and needing new travel plans. Another flight from Jaipur faced delays because of AC issues, a closed runway, and engine overheating.

TL;DR

Airline offered hotel stays, flexible rebooking

Flight disruptions are never fun—especially when you're left waiting around. The airline did step up by offering hotel stays and flexible rebooking or full refunds to those affected. It's a reminder that even big airlines face tech hiccups, but quick support can make all the difference for travelers.
