IndiGo Apologises With A Goody Bag After 9-Hour Flight Delay; Viral Video Divides Internet | WATCH

They sure have become much more operational, in comparison to what they were facing just 2 to 3 days ago– but India’s one of the biggest airlines, IndiGo, is still experiencing its own fair share of issues and even criticism. For those not aware, the airline was left cripped for a good number of days post December 01, after the government introduced new and stricter rules over crew safety. As per the new rules, which came into effect on December 01, pilots were supposed to get more resting time between their flights, which was quick to disrupt IndiGo’s roster planning. Hence, the ‘drama’ of the ‘pilot shortage’.However, the airline is only now getting back on track- slowly and steadily. But just because things are improving, it does not mean

passengers are completely fine. A video was recently shared online, which showed an IndiGo crew onboard a flight, handing goody bags to its passengers.Turns out, the bags were a form of apology, as the flight had been delayed by 9 hours. The passenger who had shared the video of getting the goody bag later shared what was inside the bags. As seen in the clip, the bag had Gourmet popcorn, Methi Mathri, Mixed Fruit Juice and a card. The clip was shared online, leaving netizens reacting. Some found the bags ‘not enough’, while others appreciated the airline’s efforts.Times Now could not confirm the details of the post.Check out the viral post: “Apologies from indigo,” the post read. The post was shared on Instagram, by the handle ‘Aaira Gaurav’. The post was shared 3 days ago, and pulled more than 8K views from netizens.

At least the airline apologized and tried to make up for it but you’re the only one still crying for attention. Grow up,” commented a user. “It’s not an apology, it's a meal for you to eat while you are waiting. We got it even when our flight was delayed by 1.5 hours last year,” added another user. “It's because of indigo that middle class is able to fly, have some patience and respect,” added another.ALSO READ: ‘Mahol Bana Diya’: Pakistani Man’s Wedding Dance Choreography To Dhurandhar’s Title Track Becomes A Hit “None of the domestic flights in other countries provide any kind of food during flights, it’s sad to see what is happening, I loved indigo service and their on-board staff. It’s sad what this has come to,” added another.
