IndiGo Flight Chaos: Passengers Stranded Amid Cancellations

IndiGo passengers face continued flight cancellations and delays, with many left stranded and uninformed, resulting in increased travel costs. The chaos has particularly affected travel in and out of Mumbai, with significant disruptions reported across India. IndiGo CEO assures normalization by mid-December.

IndiGo passengers are facing significant travel disruptions as the airline continues to struggle with flight cancellations and delays. Many travelers, like Muneeb Chaurasiya, have been left stranded after multiple notifications of changing flight schedules, compounding their travel expenses.

At Mumbai airport, the situation remains tense with numerous passengers expressing their concerns to IndiGo staff. Abhilasha Singh, a media professional, experienced a similar ordeal, where she was unaware of a cancelled flight until reaching the terminal. Attempts to arrange alternative flights were hampered by skyrocketing prices.

The issues arise as IndiGo, controlling two-thirds of India's domestic flights, failed to adapt to new pilot regulations. While CEO Pieter Elbers has expressed plans to reduce cancellations, the effects continue to reverberate across India's airports, affecting thousands of passengers.
