IndiGo cancels 33 flights at Hyderabad airport—travelers left stranded
On December 2 and 3, IndiGo canceled 33 flights at Hyderabad's Rajiv Gandhi International Airport, affecting routes to cities like Delhi, Bengaluru, Goa, and Chennai.
Hundreds of passengers were stuck and frustrated as plans got thrown off with little warning.
What went wrong?
IndiGo pointed to tech glitches, crew shortages, airport congestion, and strict duty time rules for the chaos.
Some travelers waited over 12 hours without clear updates or help.
The airport said operations were "normal," but told everyone to double-check their flight before heading out.
Not just a Hyderabad problem
Hyderabad isn't alone—IndiGo's been struggling nationwide.
On December 2 and 3, RGIA saw 33 IndiGo flights canceled. Last month, the airline scrapped over 1,200 flights across India due to staff shortages and regulatory pressures.
Unsurprisingly, this has hurt their on-time record and left many wondering when things will get back on track.
