IndiGo asks DGCA for 13 more days to pinpoint the exact cause of flight disruptions in response to its show-cause notice
India’s largest airline, IndiGo, on Monday (December 8) asked the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) for 13 more days to pinpoint the exact causes which led to the cancellation of around 3,000 flights in December 2025.
The airline, while responding to the DGCA’s show-cause notices to Chief Executive Officer Pieter Elbers and Chief Operating Officer Isidre Porqueras regarding the recent flight chaos, said that due to IndiGo’s complexity and vast scale of operations, “it was realistically not possible to pinpoint the exact cause(s)” the led to widespread flight cancellation across its network.
