Agency (New Delhi): A wave of unrest swept through Terminal 2 of the Delhi airport as leading airline IndiGo canceled its flight to Deoghar for the second consecutive day. The flight, IndiGo 6E2198, was scheduled to depart at 11:00 AM.
Passengers, frustrated by the repeated cancellation, voiced their discontent vociferously, demanding explanations from the airline staff. Officials noted that the airline personnel were unable to provide satisfactory answers, which further aggravated the situation.
The main hall of Terminal 2 witnessed an uproar as the passengers, agitated by the cancellation of the Deogarh flight, protested against the airline. The discontent spread, with other passengers joining in as the situation escalated.
One of the passengers, particularly affected by the cancellation, shared their plight, saying, “My father is critically ill. I was supposed to reach Deoghar to be with him. However, I was told that the flight was cancelled.” This personal account highlights the profound impact such disruptions can have on individuals and their families.
The airport had already experienced over 50 flight delays earlier that day, attributed to heavy fog conditions in the national capital. Further details on the situation and the airline’s response are awaited.
This incident underscores the challenges faced by airlines and passengers alike in managing disruptions, especially during adverse weather conditions, and highlights the need for effective communication and contingency planning by airlines to address passenger concerns in such scenarios.
