Elvish Yadav lashes out at Indigo airlines

Taking to X (formerly Twitter), Elvish wrote, “Frustrating experience with IndiGo Airlines! Flight 6E0615 was supposed to depart at 1 pm, but now it’s delayed again and departing at 3:35 pm! If you’re in a hurry, you’re out of luck! Such poor management and lack of respect for passengers’ time! #IndigoAirlines.”

His post comes amid growing passenger complaints about IndiGo’s frequent delays and communication lapses. Earlier today, a passenger on Flight 6E 6133 from Mumbai to Rajkot detailed being made to sit inside the aircraft for over three hours. Initially informed of “operational issues,” passengers later learned that the delay occurred because the pilot had not yet arrived. The flight’s departure time was repeatedly pushed from 7:00 AM to 7:55, then to 8:40, and finally to 10:30 AM, leaving many fuming over the lack of transparency.
