November 30, 2012

Refuting charges that pilots of two flights had an argument in mid-air over landing, SpiceJet today said at no point was any rule or procedure violated or safety compromised by the two aircraft.

"The pilots in command of the two flights meticulously followed the instructions of the Air Traffic Controller and safety was not compromised. The pilots of these flights were never engaged in any argument or discussion to claim priority landing as alleged," a SpiceJet spokesperson said in a statement.
