After a SpiceJet flight from Mumbai to Durgapur, scheduled to take off at 7.50am on Saturday, was delayed by several hours, personnel from the Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) had to intervene when angry passengers threatened to prevent boarding of the airline’s other flights.
Passengers of the same SG 6354 flight on Friday were forced to wait overnight as their flight was cancelled.
They were accommodated on the Saturday flight, which ended up being delayed by more than three hours.
