On Saturday, a SpiceJet flight from Mumbai to Srinagar was delayed for six hours after a surprise inspection by the DGCA, India's aviation watchdog found some problems, forcing the airline to arrange for a different jet for the service, reported Hindustan Times. This came as the low-cost airline is coming under critical scrutiny following a spate of incidents which have earned it a warning notice from the DGCA last week.
