  • Saturday's incident is the second such related to SpiceJet in 15 days.
  • On June 19, a Delhi-bound SpiceJet plane, carrying 185 passengers and six crew members, made an emergency landing in Patna, minutes after its take-off, as its cabin crew witnessed sparks coming from an engine because of a technical glitch.

Breathing
Passenger told there was panic situation in plane

"On July 2, 2022, SpiceJet Q400 aircraft was operating SG-2962 (Delhi-Jabalpur). While passing 5000ft, the crew noticed smoke in the cabin. The pilots decided to return...Aircraft landed safely at Delhi and passengers were disembarked," said SpiceJet's spokesperson. A passenger Saurabh Chhabra told ANI, "Soon after the flight took off, there was a panic situation in the plane as passengers were having trouble breathing inside."

Coughing
Passengers splashed water on their masks to breathe properly

Chhabra further said that the passengers splashed water on their masks to breathe properly. There were some children and senior citizens who started coughing. The crew initially told the passengers that someone had smoked a cigarette on the plane. "However, it wasn't possible as, since the take-off, our seat belts were on... There is something more to this (sic)," he added.
