Man mistakenly boards Indigo flight to Udaipur instead of Patna, inquiry ordered
The Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) has ordered an inquiry after a passenger who was supposed to take an Indigo flight to Patna instead boarded another flight of the airline and landed at Udaipur – about 1400km away from his destination.
The incident was reported on January 30 (Monday), and the passenger was sent to his destination next day.
A senior DGCA official said that the passenger, identified as Afsar Hussain, booked a ticket for Patna via Indigo flight 6E-214 and reached Delhi airport on January 30 to board the scheduled flight. But he mistakenly boarded Udaipur-bound flight 6E-319 of Indigo.
