On Saturday, Mumbai to Gorakhpur flight returned after a crack was detected on a SpiceJet plane in the windshield of the aircraft to the base at Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport, according to a statement given by an official.
Such related incidents were not new with the SpiceJet airplanes on the 18th of May, a Goa-bound SpiceJet flight had to return to Pune due to technical issues. Although, further details regarding the technical issue were not revealed by airline operators.

The list goes on with another incident that happened few days ago when SpiceJet airline said its systems faced an “attempted ransomware attack” on Tuesday. In which the passengers were stranded for hours, with some of them left waiting inside their planes for nearly five hours.
A day earlier, on Saturday the pilot-in-command decided to return to Mumbai due to the crack, the spokesperson said. The air traffic controller was informed and the aircraft landed safely at the Mumbai airport. No one in the process gets hurt.
