Ahmedabad airport flags major IndiGo flight delays—here's what's up

India Dec 09, 2025

If you're flying out of Ahmedabad, heads up: the airport just warned travelers about ongoing IndiGo delays and cancelations because of staff shortages.
Since December 3, nearly 350 flights have been canceled, with the worst day seeing over twice as many cancelations as actual flights.
More disruptions are likely, though things might ease a bit soon.

Why is this happening—and what's IndiGo doing?

IndiGo's main headache is a crew shortage. They are working to get schedules back on track.

Security scare adds to the chaos

To top it off, on December 4 a bomb threat forced an international IndiGo flight to land in Ahmedabad.
Even after security cleared things up, crew shortages meant passengers were stuck for another 12 hours—just another example of how rough this patch has been for both flyers and airline staff.
