New Delhi: An Air India Chicago-Delhi flight, carrying 342 passengers, was diverted to Toronto this morning after the pilot suspected oil leakage in one of its engines, officials said.
After flying for two and a half hours from Chicago, the AI 126 Chicago-Delhi Hyderabad flight turned to Toronto Pearson Airport, airline officials said here.
It landed at the Toronto airport under emergency conditions after disposing of its fuel onboard.
