Had a similar experience last month with IndiGo Mumbai-Delhi flight. The crew handled everything professionally and arranged alternate flights quickly. Though stressful, their response was reassuring.

Why are we seeing so many technical snags lately? Is DGCA properly monitoring aircraft maintenance? This is the 3rd incident this month. Need stricter safety audits! 🇮🇳

As someone who flies frequently for work, I appreciate when airlines prioritize safety over schedules. The refund/alternate flight policy is good, but they should also compensate for the stress caused.

Kudos to the pilot and ATC for quick action! But IndiGo needs to improve their customer service at smaller airports like Indore. Last time my flight was cancelled, the ground staff was clueless about alternatives.

Thank God everyone is safe! 🙏 These small routes (Indore-Raipur) don't get much attention but have many daily passengers. Hope the aviation ministry looks into regional connectivity aircraft maintenance too.
