IndiGo flyers face chaos as delays, cancellations cripple Pune, Nagpur routes

PUNE: Neha Mulay, booked on a 5.55 AM Pune–Bengaluru IndiGo flight, waited nearly four hours before it was abruptly cancelled, causing her to miss two connecting flights to Kochi. Mulay was not alone — hundreds of IndiGo passengers across Pune, Nagpur and connecting routes faced severe disruption on Tuesday.

At Pune Airport, multiple morning flights to Bengaluru, Delhi, Kochi and Agartala were delayed for hours and later cancelled without clear updates. Flyers described the situation as “total chaos”, with many missing onward journeys, waiting inside aircraft for hours, and receiving contradictory information from ground staff.
