NEW DELHI: Passengers created a ruckus at the Delhi airport in the wee hours of Wednesday as a SpiceJet flight to Hyderabad, which was set to depart from Terminal 1, got delayed due to runway closure and unsuccessful attempts at changing terminals.
“The incoming aircraft, which was to operate the Delhi-Hyderabad flight, landed at Delhi airport’s Terminal 2 as scheduled. After landing at Terminal 2, the aircraft could not be taxied to Terminal 1 due to runway closure for scheduled maintenance, leading to a delay,” a SpiceJet spokesperson told PTI.
“SpiceJet officials took special permission to ferry the passengers and the baggage to Terminal 2. However, some passengers did not cooperate with our team and also did not allow other passengers to board the coaches and insisted on boarding the aircraft from Terminal 1,” he added.
