Saudia flight smoke alert in Lucknow, aircraft grounded for checks

16 June,2025 03:54 PM IST

On the morning of June 15, a scare unfolded at Lucknow airport after smoke was detected from the wheels of a Saudia Airlines flight arriving from Jeddah. Airport officials said the Airport Rescue and Fire Fighting team rushed to the spot and, along with Saudia’s technical crew, brought the situation under control. There was no damage to the aircraft, passengers were deboarded safely, and airport operations remained unaffected. This incident comes close on the heels of the Air India Dreamliner crash-landing in Ahmedabad, where the Boeing 787 suffered major damage during landing. With aviation safety under sharp focus after that incident, the quick response at Lucknow helped avert another potential crisis.
