IndiGo flight cancelations throw travel plans into chaos
IndiGo, which carries about 60% of India's domestic flyers, has been hit by major disruptions for five days straight—canceling over 1,000 flights on Friday and more than 400 flights on Saturday.
With so many people relying on IndiGo, the mess has led to government action like capping ticket prices and speeding up refunds.
Why it matters for travelers right now
Passengers in cities like Delhi and Mumbai are facing long lines, poor communication from the airline, and lots of frustration.
The government is stepping in with full refunds and promises that lost bags will be returned within 48 hours.
Railways are adding extra coaches to help stranded travelers.
The crisis is also sparking debate about too much power in too few airlines—and whether better oversight could have prevented this mess.
