IndiGo Flight From Mumbai to Bhubaneswar Faces Significant Delays and Passenger Ordeal, Radhika Apte Shares On Social Media

Mumbai, 14th January 2024: Passengers traveling from Mumbai to Bhubaneswar on IndiGo flight 6E-2301 faced a challenging experience as the scheduled departure time of 8:30 am on Saturday was significantly delayed by almost five-and-a-half hours. The inconvenience escalated when passengers found themselves locked in the aerobridge for an additional hour.

Despite the ground staff boarding the passengers and securing the gates, a notable delay ensued as the pilots were reportedly yet to board, attributed to complications in the rostering process. This unexpected situation left passengers stranded in the aerobridge, unable to either board the aircraft or return to the terminal.

Among the affected travelers was actor Radhika Apte, who took to social media to express her frustration. In a post, she stated, “Today morning I had a flight at 8:30. It’s 10:50 now, and the flight has still not boarded. But they said we were boarding and put all the passengers in the aerobridge and locked it.”
