The Boeing 787-9 aircraft landed safely, with security agencies immediately launching precautionary checks. Air India Flight AI2030 Makes Emergency Landing in Jaipur Air India flight AI2030 was diverted to Jaipur after authorities received information concerning a possible security threat aboard the aircraft. The aircraft was directed to an isolation bay following its landing at approximately 9:35 am, allowing security personnel to conduct inspections without disrupting normal airport operations. Passengers and crew were safely evacuated under security supervision and moved to a designated area inside the airport terminal. Pilot Reportedly Activated Squawk 7500 Hijack Alert Preliminary reports indicated that the pilot activated Squawk Code 7500 while flying through the Mumbai Flight Information Region.

Personnel from the Anti-Terrorism Squad, airport security agencies and local police secured the aircraft and conducted security inspections. The National Security Guard was also reportedly placed on standby in New Delhi as a precautionary measure. Initial reports differed on whether the incident originated from a bomb threat or a suspected hijacking alert. Authorities are examining the circumstances to determine what triggered the emergency response. The incident caused an unexpected diversion for passengers travelling to Delhi, although no injuries were reported.
