An early morning Air India flight between New Delhi and New York -- AI 101 -- was on Wednesday grounded due to a technical glitch.
"The flight has been delayed due to a technical glitch," an AI official said of the grounding of the aircraft -- a Boeing 777-300 ER -- with around 300 passengers on board.
"All passengers have been shifted to a hotel and the glitch is being fixed. The flight will be operated by the same aircraft and will depart at 5 p.m," the official added.
