IndiGo grounded flight 6E 2111 at Lucknow airport after security personnel detected a threat minutes before the aircraft was scheduled to depart for Delhi.
The airline said standard protocols were activated immediately, with all passengers deplaned and baggage rescreened while law enforcement agencies took charge of the investigation.
Airport operations on the affected bay paused temporarily, causing cascading delays on the busy Lucknow-Delhi corridor during peak morning departures.
IndiGo declined to specify the nature of the threat, citing an active inquiry, but emphasized that no injuries occurred and the crew followed mandated emergency communication steps.
