After several Indigo flights were delayed across the country, Indian aviation’s watchdog Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) took a strong cognizance of the airlines’ operations.
As per sources, the non-availability of crew members was cited as the primary reason for the hindrance.
“Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) has taken strong cognizance of IndiGo operations and sought a clarification/explanation behind the massive flight delays nationwide,” DGCA officials told ANI.
As per the Ministry of Civil aviation (MoCA) data, only 45 per cent of IndiGo flights were able to operate on-time performance (OTP) within 15 minutes of the scheduled departure time on Saturday.
