00:00 In a surprising video circulating online, an Air India flight caught attention as water

00:08 leaked from the overhead compartment while passengers were on board.

00:12 Shared by the Twitter user @baldwiner, the footage showed a steady flow of water, prompting

00:17 various speculations about the incident.

00:19 Accompanying the video, Baldwiner humorously captioned it as "Air India fly with us.

00:25 It's not a trip, it's an immersive experience."

00:27 This led to diverse reactions online, with some attributing it to a technical issue,

00:31 while others criticized the airline's response.

00:35 Another person responded, "This is a technical glitch.

00:37 Can happen with any airline.

00:39 Looks like the passengers are more comfortable than those who propagate the video to defame

00:43 the airline."

00:44 Highlighting the dangers of water leaks in planes, other users cautioned, "Water can

00:49 cause a short circuit in electronic circuits of the aircraft and may cause implosions and

00:53 thus explosions.

00:54 It's very risky."

00:56 Technical staff, especially ground engineers who certified the flights for take-off, should

01:00 be held responsible.

01:02 Offering an alternative viewpoint, another user suggested, "This may be entirely their

01:06 fault.

01:07 Maybe.

01:08 But this implies that this was possibly a massive amount of frost that had condensed

01:11 onto root overhead bin structures."

01:14 At last, Air India responded to the incident, stating, "Flight AI169 operates from Gatwick

01:19 to Amritsar on 24 November 2023, had developed a rare occurrence of condensation adjustments

01:25 inside the cabin.

01:27 Some of the guests seated in the affected rows were promptly relocated to other vacant

01:30 seats and given the circumstances, the cabin crew made every effort to make sure the guests

01:35 are comfortable.

01:36 Air India stressed it is committed to the safety and comfort of guests on board and

01:40 they regret the unexpected incident.

01:42 "It's a shame that the passengers were not able to take off and land safely.
