Hyderabad: Two TruJet flights from Rajiv Gandhi International Airport to Tirupati and Rajamundry returned to the airport on Wednesday soon after taking off.
Sources said that one of the planes, flight 2T-311 to Rajamundry was scheduled to leave at 8.04 am and it took off as per the schedule.
Twenty minutes later, however, it came back to Rajiv Gandhi International Airport at 8.24 pm due to technical problems. “Similarly, the flight 2T-423 left at 4.20 pm as per schedule but had to come back to the runway after flying for 10 minutes. There was a technical problem involved in both the cases and the engineers of TruJet are working to set it right,” the sources said.
TruJet arranged alternatives for its passengers and sent them to their destinations. 51 passengers were on the flight to Tirupati and 50 passengers were on the Rajamundry flight.
