The outraged passenger complained that “nothing” was working in the cabin
A PASSENGER who flew on the doomed Air India jet just two hours before it crashed said the plane was ridden with faults.
Shocking footage showed the Boeing 787 Dreamliner’s interior with defective TV screens and “no air conditioning at all” when it flew from Delhi to Ahmedadbad – two hours prior to the horror smash.

Air India Flight AI171 was en route to London Gatwick when it crashed into a hostel used by doctors on Thursday.
It had 242 people on board, including 53 Brits and 11 children.
So far, 204 bodies have been recovered, and one Brit is believed to have survived.
On X, Akash Vasta claimed that he had flown on the very same aircraft just two hours before it crashed.
He posted horrifying footage which showed many parts of the plane not functioning properly during its second last ever flight.

He said on X: “I was in the same damn flight 2 hours before it took off from AMD.
“I came in this from DEL-AMD.”
The shocked passenger added that he had “noticed unusual things” in the plane which he suggested may have been telltale signs that it was defective.

In the concerning footage, he can be heard saying: “The AC is not working at all.
“And as usual, your TV screens are also not working, neither this button for calling the cabin crew.”
He said: “Nothing is working. Nothing!
“Not even the light is working.”
The worried passenger asked: “Is this what you are providing?”
He also complained that he was “sweating like hell” due to the lack of AC, and stated that this was why “Air India is considered one of the worst airlines in the world”.

It comes as one 40-year-old Brit, Ajay Kumar Vishwash, claimed that he cheated death after jumping off the flaming Air India jet before it crashed.
Unbelievable footage showed Vishwash walking away from what is understood to be the crash site of the doomed Air India flight to London Gatwick.
Vishwash, who still had his boarding pass, told Hindustan Times: “Thirty seconds after take-off, there was a loud noise and then the plane crashed. It all happened so quickly.”
Full harrowing CCTV footage has also now shown the Boeing 787 taking off before appearing to lose power in Ahmedabad in the west of India.
The plane was flying to London Gatwick airport and was carrying 230 passengers and 12 crew.
Video showed the plane taxing down the runway before taking off at around 1.38pm local time from Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport in Ahmedabad.
It also showed the plane take to the sky – before it appears to stop climbing and then plummet back down to earth.
The flight then crashed in a fireball into a doctor’s hostel.
Police are now hunting through the rubble and wreckage for any survivors.
India’s dark aviation history
A LONDON-BOUND Air India flight crashed in the western Indian city of Ahmedabad on Thursday.
The following are details of some other airline accidents in India in recent decades:
AUGUST 2020
At least 18 people died and 16 were severely injured when an Air India Express Boeing 737 plane skidded off the runway in the southern city of Kozhikode during heavy rain, plunged into a valley and crashed nose-first into the ground.
MAY 2010
An Air India Boeing 737 flight from Dubai overshot the runway at the airport in the southern city of Mangaluru and crashed into a ravine, killing 158 people on board.
JULY 2000
More than 50 people were killed when a state-owned Alliance Air flight between Kolkata and the capital, New Delhi, crashed in a residential area of the eastern city of Patna.
According to flight tracking website Flightradar, the Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner’s final signal was received just seconds after take-off.
This was last logged at 1:38pm local time – less than a minute after it started the journey.
It had only reached 625ft at the time, officials believe.
In a statement the airline said: “Flight AI171, operating Ahmedabad-London Gatwick was involved in an accident on 12 June 2025.
“At this moment, we are ascertaining the details and will share further updates at the earliest opportunity.”
Out of the 242 on board, 169 were Indian travellers, one Canadian and seven Portuguese nationals alongside the Brits.
