Mumbai airport runway reopens after four days

After remaining shut for four days, the main runway of the Mumbai airport was on Monday reopened after a team of engineers towed away a Turkish Airways’ Airbus 340 aircraft, which got stuck in the mud when it skidded off the tarmac, airport officials said.
“The Turkish Airways’ plane TK-740 was towed away at 1:17 am,” the airport spokesperson told PTI, adding that the runway has been “handed over” to ATC at 6:51 am for operation.
