The IndiGo cancellation crisis continues to frustrate passengers. While many are venting their anger at the airline, some are choosing to find humour in the chaos. People are now digging up old videos
and sharing humorous takes on social media. An undated clip of a ground staff member confusing passengers with her unusual announcements has now resurfaced on social media.
The clip shows how the flight attendant’s use of the word ‘fatigue’ left a passenger confused.
Clip Of Language Confusion Goes Viral Amid IndiGo Cancellations
It is unclear when the incident was originally recorded. The video shows a passenger asking a ground staff member about the “real scene” or the actual situation regarding their flight. The woman explains that the flight will not operate due to the pilot’s “fatigue.” The passenger mishears the word and asks, “Kya phat gaya? (What tore?)”
The woman repeats the word, and the passenger responds that they understand now.

Comedian Asks Kingfisher, Jet Airways To Return
Another clip, uploaded by comedian Abijit Ganguly, has also grabbed attention. In the video, the stand-up comic humorously requests that Vijay Mallya bring back his airline. He also mentioned Jet Airways and Ness Wadia’s GoFirst. Talking about Kingfisher Airlines, Ganguly jokingly said that Mallya was a “great man” who gave passengers free earphones even when the company was drowning in debt.
Taking a swipe at IndiGo for their present crisis, Ganguly said that the company had engaged in ridiculous cost-cutting measures like serving tea without any lid on the cup, just to pay their pilots less. Ganguly quipped, “You were a flying company. The one thing you needed was more pilots. What was your plan? Were you going to fly a plane using AI?”
Laut aao Jet Airways aur Kingfisher
At the end of the clip, the comedian acknowledged that he might use IndiGo again once the crisis gets resolved since there are few options available.
Many users supported Ganguly’s video, with one user writing, “Right on Point … but I feel we need @Ryanair in India. They go real cheap. No frills, no free headphones, but at least they will be a fresh change !”
Another commented, “Both Jet Airways and Kingfisher were much better in terms of quality and service.”

One individual slammed IndiGo and remarked, “They won’t even serve coffee, stating turbulence when there is none. And the lid thing is another level of failure.”
