Akasa Air received bomb threats for six flights following similar posts made about Vistara.

On October 20, Akasa Air received bomb threats for six flights, including QP 1102 from Ahmedabad to Mumbai, QP 1378 from Delhi to Goa, and QP 1385 from Mumbai to Bagdogra, along with flights from Delhi to Hyderabad, Kochi to Mumbai, and Lucknow to Mumbai. The Akasa Air Emergency Response team was activated and followed standard operating procedures, which included notifying regulatory authorities while closely monitoring the situation. Flight captains and crew adhered to the necessary emergency protocols in collaboration with local authorities.

All flights continued to their scheduled destinations without diversion and landed safely. Airport Services teams at all affected airports worked with local authorities to ensure smooth operations. Additionally, Star Air also received a bomb threat in Lucknow, but all six flights arrived on schedule in Mumbai.

Passenger needs were addressed as necessary, and after following standard procedures and conducting thorough inspections, all six aircraft were cleared for operation.

Since October 14, multiple flights have faced bomb threats via social media, leading to the arrest of one minor in connection with an earlier threat. Earlier on October 20, Vistara confirmed that it had received 'security threats' for six flights, including UK25 (Delhi to Frankfurt), UK106 (Singapore to Mumbai), UK146 (Bali to Delhi), UK116 (Singapore to Delhi), UK110 (Singapore to Pune), and UK107 (Mumbai to Singapore). In accordance with protocols, Vistara informed the appropriate authorities and implemented the required security measures. A spokesperson emphasized that "the safety and security of our customers, crew, and aircraft remain our top priority."
