[Resolved]  Indigo Airlines — bad experience and a consequent loss of more than 10k

Hi,
I have been using indigo air services for almost a decade but what happened today was very disheartening. I booked my ticket from bangalore to raipur for 2 september 2018 and return from raipur to bangalore for 3 september 2018 pnr number - zjkv9k.
As i stay in erode i took a night bus from erode to bangalore at reached bangalore airport at 6 am. I did checkin, gave my luggage to the counter and also have completed my security checking. Since i came by bus from erode to bangalore, i was feeling little sick i went to use rest room.in the meanwhile i got a call from your executive and he asked me to report within 1 mintue and it was around 7.20 at that time. I reached the counter by 7.21 but your executive didn't allow me enter. I begged like anything that it's very urgent i need to reach raipur as there was medical emergency but they didn't allowed me as i didn't arrive in 1 minute as asked by them.
I just want to ask 1 simple question that if it was possible on indigo's part to search for my luggage and bring back the luggage which was already loaded in the flight why it was not possible on indigo's part to allow me to board the flight and attend my medical emergency in raipur as that would have taken much lesser time than searching and bringing back the luggage from the flight.
As a valued customer of indigo from almost a decade, i request to take necessary action and do the needful.
I will wait for your reply till i take any further action.
Thanks
Jai prakash chandak

IndiGo Customer Care's response
Hi Jai Prakash,

We understand missing a flight could be stressful. However, we hope you would understand we have to close our boarding gate 25 minutes prior to scheduled departure time to maintain on-time performance. We advise our passengers to keep enough time in hand and to report at least 2 hrs prior to avoid any last minute hassle. As you had reported after the boarding gate closure, our staff were unable to allow you onboard. Further, our staff offered you re-accommodation on the next available flight. Please be assured that we always remain committed to assist our passengers in the best possible manner.

Regards,
IndiGo Team
