Vistara may cancel some 70 flights on Tuesday after calling off nearly 50 a day before when several pilots took sick leave, news agency PTI reported quoting sources in the airline.
The airline had to reschedule flights too on Monday. “We have had a significant number of flight cancellations and delays in the past few days due to various reasons, including crew unavailability,” said a spokesperson for the airline in a statement.
Vistara, which is owned by Tata Group and Singapore Airlines, had to utilise the wide-body Boeing 787 Dreamliner, “to accommodate more passengers, wherever feasible,” said the spokesperson.
