Hubballi airport ready for flight services

Dharwad: SpiceJet which had suspended its services to Hubballi, will soon resume operation as the runway at Hubballi has been cleared for traffic.

The SpiceJet had suspended its operations after its plane SpiceJet SG-1085 which arrived from Bengaluru on March 8 crashlanded at Hubballi airport after its tyre got burst.
The plane with 78 passengers on board had overshot the runway. However, all the passengers were safe and had been rescued by the airport staff.

Following heavy rains the plane had skidded off and was on its belly. Since the plane had got stuck in the mud, the runway was blocked and no flight services could be allowed.

As a result, the airport was closed for traffic and the services were temporarily shifted to the Belagavi airport.
