'Lipstick' bomb threat note on IndiGo flight in Kolkata hours after hoax threat on another aircraft

The flight, 6E 6894, arrived in Kolkata from Dibrugarh, when the bomb threat note was found


The Week, February 14, 2026 : Hours after a bomb scare was reported on an IndiGo flight scheduled to operate from Kolkata to Shillong, a similar threat was reported on another IndiGo flight.

The flight, 6E 6894, arrived in Kolkata from Dibrugarh, when the bomb threat note was found. Interestingly, the bomb threat note written with lipstick was recovered from the aircraft's toilet.

The flight landed safety at Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose International Airport at 7.37 pm and was moved to the isolation bay for security inspection. All passengers were deboarded safely.

The earlier Shillong-bound flight, 6E 7304, also had a similar bomb threat note recovered from the toilet by one of the crew members around 9.15 am, around 15 minutes before departure. The passengers were evacuated immediately and shifted to an isolation bay for detailed checking.

It later turned out to be hoax and the flight left for Shillong around 1.30 pm.
