Hundreds of air passengers were left stranded mid-way as their Bareilly-bound Indigo flight from Mumbai was cancelled due to inclement weather. After a chaotic situation on Friday morning, the airline agreed to accommodate them in a Delhi-bound flight but failed to reroute the passengers to their final destination. The stranded passengers told mid-day that they had been left with no choice but to spend from their own pockets to either make a night stay in Delhi or hire a cab to reach Bareilly, both of which are expensive.

Vasai-based Hoshiyarsingh Dasoni, who was travelling to Bareilly on flight 6E5316, told mid-day, “It was rescheduled to take off at 11.35 am, but Indigo officials announced at the last minute that the flight had been cancelled.”
