IndiGo Crisis: ₹500 crore total compensation to ‘severely affected’ passengers, refunds in focus — Latest updates
IndiGo crisis: Operations of budget carrier IndiGo stabilised in the days following government intervention, after thousands of flights were cancelled last week due to various operational reasons of the airline, including newer amendments to the Flight Duty Time Limitations (FDTL) order.
As of Friday, 12 December, IndiGo operated more than 2,000 daily flights, as the airline said its focus remained on compensating passengers who were severely affected due to the IndiGo flight cancellations.
Here are the latest IndiGo flight cancellation updates and news.
IndiGo to provide ₹500 crore compensation
In a statement on Friday, IndiGo said that it will compensate more than ₹500 crore in total to severely affected customers whose flights were cancelled within 24 hours of departure and were left stranded at airports across the country.“Our goal is to make this process (of refunds) as transparent, easy, and hassle-free as possible for you. We will be provided compensation which, in our current estimation, will be in excess of ₹500 crores to customers whose flights were cancelled within 24 hours of departure time and/or to customers severely stranded at certain airports,” IndiGo said in a statement.
