An IndiGo flight, 6E 813, traveling from Goa to Indore, experienced a technical issue shortly before landing on Monday, July 21, 2025. The aircraft landed safely at its destination, Devi Ahilya Bai Holkar Airport in Indore, Madhya Pradesh.
Following the landing, the aircraft is scheduled to undergo thorough checks and maintenance before it is cleared to resume regular operations. IndiGo has stated that they are actively working to minimize any disruptions to subsequent flights that may arise due to this incident.
While details regarding the specific technical snag have not been disclosed by the airline, IndiGo has expressed regret for any inconvenience caused to passengers. The airline reiterated that the safety and security of its passengers, crew, and aircraft remain its top priority.
This incident follows a few other recent instances involving IndiGo flights encountering technical issues. Earlier in the week, on July 16, 2025, an IndiGo flight from Delhi to Goa, 6E 6271, had to make an emergency landing in Mumbai due to an engine failure. The Airbus A320neo aircraft, carrying 191 passengers, landed safely at Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport. Prior to that, another IndiGo flight from Indore to Raipur was compelled to return to its origin airport shortly after takeoff because of a technical problem.
These events have raised questions about the maintenance protocols of the airline, which holds a significant share of India's domestic aviation market. Despite these challenges, IndiGo has been aggressively expanding its international routes, including launching direct flights to destinations in Africa, Central Asia, and Europe.
Airlines like Alliance Air and IndiGo offer flights on the Goa to Indore route. A non-stop IndiGo flight from Goa to Indore typically takes about 1 hour and 45 minutes.
