Air India cabin crew injured as captain forgets to announce landing

Mumbai: An Air India aircraft and it's passengers had a narrow escape after a faulty landing at Mumbai airport on Sunday. The Boeing 777-300 flight (AI-922) arriving in Mumbai from Riyadh apparently experienced turbulence just before it was about to land and dropped 100 feet. The sudden drop in altitude led to around six crew members suffering bruises and minor injuries as they hadn't taken their seats. Luckily the passengers escaped unhurt. Apparently, the captain of the flight forgot to inform the cabin crew that the flight was about to touchdown and would be dropping. However, the Air India officials brushed aside this incident, stating that these were just accusations. “We are investigating the matter,” said Air India spokesperson to mid-day.
