British Airways is investigating an incident in which all three pilots fell ill during a Hyderabad to London flight. According to reports, one pilot became incapacitated at around 30,000 feet, with suspected food poisoning cited as the likely cause. The other two pilots are said to have taken over to ensure the aircraft could land safely in London. One of the affected pilots reportedly requires extended medical treatment, including a 12-hour operation. Authorities and the airline are working to determine what led to the suspected poisoning, including whether contaminated food or other exposure occurred during the Hyderabad stopover. British Airways has begun reviewing aspects of its crew arrangements in Hyderabad, including hotel accommodation and meals. The investigation aims to establish the circumstances surrounding the illness and to assess whether procedural or logistical changes are needed to prevent a recurrence. The incident does not alter the reported outcome of a safe landing in London, but it has prompted scrutiny of crew welfare and catering arrangements associated with the stopover.
