New Delhi: An Air India flight from Bengaluru to San Francisco was diverted to Anchorage in Alaska due to technical snag, an official said.
Following the resolution of a technical issue, flight AI 175 departed and touched down in San Francisco at around 10 a.m. (IST) on Monday, according to an Air India official.
The B777 aircraft encountered the technical problem while enroute to San Francisco, necessitating a diversion to Anchorage, Alaska.

"AI 175 operating from Bengaluru to San Francisco was briefly diverted to Anchorage in Alaska due to a technical reason.
