On the forums: Pilot misses airport — “what a mess!”
A KLM flight from Amsterdam arrived in India only to circle for hours before eventually diverting to the other side of the country after the flight’s pilot couldn’t find the city of Hyderabad’s newly built airport. The “slip-up” came just hours after Hyderabad’s new Shamshabad airport opened — and the old Begumpet facility had been closed to commercial traffic. The TalkingTravelers.com forums are buzzing about the missed landing. “What a mess,” says one traveler. “The two cities are about 400 miles apart.” He wonders what kind of compensation passengers will be offered by the airline.
