A Swiss International Airlines flight bound for Zurich was forced to abort takeoff at Delhi’s Indira Gandhi International Airport after an engine malfunction early on April 26, 2026. The airline said the LX147 flight encountered an engine issue during takeoff, prompting the pilot to cancel the departure and initiate an emergency evacuation. Four passengers and one crew member were injured while exiting the aircraft.
According to local media reports cited in the source, the engine caught fire as the aircraft accelerated on the runway, leading to the emergency evacuation. The flight carried 228 passengers, including four children and 13 crew members. The injured were taken to hospital, and the crew member reportedly suffered an ankle sprain. Initially, six passengers were reported injured, but the number was later revised to five.
Following the incident, an emergency was declared at the airport, though operations later returned to normal. Swiss International Airlines has formed a special task force to investigate the cause of the malfunction.
