'Excessive noise' forces London-bound AI flight to divert after 7 hours in air

Air India's new Airbus A350, VT-JRF, faced a recurring issue with turbulence and noise in its belly hold, forcing a return to Delhi from a London-bound flight. This marks the second such incident in ten days, prompting a DGCA investigation. The aircraft had previously diverted to Shannon for checks after a similar problem on a New York to Delhi route.
