A Boeing 787 Dreamliner flown by Air India from Delhi landed at the Hyderabad airport on Monday without provision for additional fuel. This is India's first flight to be operated without carrying any additional fuel, an Air India official said. Regulations require every aircraft to carry additional fuel to fly to an alternative airport in case of flight diversion.
