[Resolved] Indigo Airlines — staff misbehaved and did not allow to board flight

S Shinoj Chadayan from Panipat, Haryana

Ref pnr ngnr9n flight 6e - 873 Indigo refused to onboard though entered airport at 5.15 am. There was a long queue to collect boarding pass and finally refused boarding. Have seen other people who came late, one lady who’s flight was at 7.05 and she allowed to board /check in at 6.40. A staff named vaidyanath (Who is supervisor) misbehaved and mentally harassed by arguing extremely rudely. I am not worried about the amount i paid for different flight. Indigo should teach their employees how to behave and make them to follow certain ethics when they are on job. This is not only happened with me but also many passengers they refused to board. After reaching to the counter, they were quoting different price for alternative tickets. One lady at counter was talking 3000k where another one gave the ticket on 1250. So how this is calculated? I am waiting to hear from indigo on this and further i can go to court if required. Was this information helpful? No (0) Yes (0)
