IndiGo cancels 200 flights, blames pilot shortage and tech issues

Business Dec 03, 2025

If you're flying IndiGo on Wednesday, heads up—about 200 flights were canceled across big cities like Delhi, Mumbai, Hyderabad, and Bengaluru.
The main reason? New rules mean pilots have to rest more, so there just weren't enough crews.
IndiGo also mentioned tech glitches and bad weather making things worse.

What's IndiGo doing about it?

The airline says it's tweaking its schedule for the next couple of days to get things back on track.
If your flight was affected, you'll get options for a refund or another booking.
Before heading out, IndiGo suggests checking your flight status online—they're promising to help passengers as much as possible during the chaos.
