Emergency @ COK Airport on 15 July 2022

Incident on 15th July 2022:

Air Arabia flight G9 426 going to Kochi (COK) from Sharjah (SHJ) airport noticed technical faults and was seeking Emergency Landing at Kochi (COK) airport.

Salute to the Air Arabia Pilot and his crew for managing the emergency without panic attack for passengers.  Great effort by CIAL team for handling situation well!

It was a serious emergency and all movement systems were shut down at airport.  Aircraft was moved to a different bay (after disembarking passengers) for thorough check before unloading luggage.  After declaring safety, systems restart was taking time as per airport team.

Many thanks to the whole team!.
