Air India Issued Notice After 3 Italian Passengers Bypass Delhi Immigration

Three Italian nationals departed from Delhi without undergoing mandatory immigration checks, prompting Indian authorities to issue a notice to Air India. The passengers were travelling under Air India's hub-and-spoke model, which routes passengers from smaller domestic airports to a major hub before their international connection. This arrangement appears to have created a gap in the immigration screening process at Delhi airport. Authorities are investigating how the passengers were able to board their international flight without completing the required checks.
