Five passengers, two Air India crew members on the flight AI 130 from London to Mumbai, felt sick during the flight on Monday. They showed symptoms like dizziness and nausea. The flight landed safely in Mumbai, where a medical team was waiting to help. Also, given medical help at the airport.
Cabin pressure drops suspected as cause of illness
At first, food poisoning was suspected, but an airline official later said the cause may have been a slow drop in cabin pressure. Two crew members and two passengers who continued to feel unwell were taken by wheelchair to the airport medical facility. They were treated and later discharged. The pilot did not report any health issues as they received their meals after the passenger. Air India has started checking what led to the passengers and crew falling ill.
