The main runway at Mumbai airport is shut after a SpiceJet flight overshot its mark while landing amid heavy rainfall at around 11.45 pm on Monday. The plane, a Boeing 737-800, is still stranded at the end of the runway. A secondary runway at the airport is operational but flights are likely to be delayed.
"Spicejet SG 6237 Jaipur-Mumbai flight overshoots runway while landing at Mumbai Airport. All passengers are safe, no injuries reported," stated a spokesperson for the airline.

The SpiceJet incident on Monday, coupled with heavy overnight rainfall, forced almost 54 flights to be diverted to nearby airports like Bengaluru and Ahmedabad.
