Mangaluru: A Last-Minute Flight Cancellation Leaves Passengers Stranded
A Tale of Travel Woes and Neglect
In a recent turn of events, passengers bound for Dammam from Mangaluru International Airport faced an unexpected and frustrating ordeal. Air India Express, known for its carelessness, cancelled their flight at the eleventh hour, leaving travelers high and dry.
The scheduled departure time of 11.10 pm was first pushed to 11.45 pm, and then, in a further delay, to 1.40 am. However, the flight never took off, and passengers were left with no choice but to endure the consequences.
Stranded and Unassisted
The plight of these passengers is a testament to the lack of support and consideration shown by the airline. With no drinking water, no food, and no proper guidance, they were left to fend for themselves. To add insult to injury, arrangements to send them back home were not made promptly, leaving them stranded and frustrated.
A Call for Action
One commenter, PRAVEEN, voiced their frustration, questioning the reliability of Air India Express and suggesting that other airlines should be given a chance to operate from Mangaluru International Airport. With a growing number of agreements (27 and counting), it’s evident that this issue strikes a chord with many.
And Here’s the Controversial Bit…
Should we hold airlines accountable for such last-minute cancellations, especially when they fail to provide basic amenities and support to their passengers? Or is it an inevitable part of travel that we must accept? Share your thoughts in the comments below, and let’s spark a discussion on this pressing matter!
