Air India is facing fresh turbulence following last week’s fatal crash as additional safety inspections on its Dreamliner fleet have led to flight delays, cancellations and growing passenger anxiety.

A week after the accident, the infant Dhyaansh is still in the Paediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) of the Civil Hospital in Ahmedabad. His condition his improving, Dhyaansh's father Kapil Kachhadiya said.

One of the engines of the Air India plane that crashed last week was new, while the other was not due for servicing until December, the airline's chairman has said. In an interview with an Indian news channel, N Chandrasekaran said that both engines of the aircraft had "clean" histories.
