An Air India Express Boeing 737-800, registration VT-AYA performing flight IX-384 from Dubai (United Arab Emirates) to Mangalore (India) with 181 people on board, landed on Mangalore's runway 24 at about 17:30L (12:00Z) but veered right off the runway and came to a stop about abeam of the runway end, after the nose gear had gone over a drainage ditch. The passengers disembarked via mobile stairs. The aircraft received minor damage.

On Jul 24th 2019 India's DGCA in its role as regulator (but not in its capacity as accident investigator) reported the aircraft performed an unstable approach at too high a speed and touched down about 900 meters/3000 feet past the runway threshold leaving about 1500 meters/5000 feet for roll out (runway length plus paved runway end safety area 2440 meters/8000 feet). This caused the runway excursion and damage to the aircraft. The license of the captain was suspended for a year following the date of the occurrence.
