[Resolved] Indigo Airlines — unable to board flight | |||
Dear sir, I checked in at chennai airport at around 7 45am for my flight from chennai to trivandrum which is supposed to depart at 10 45am. Around 8 45 the boarding gate was shown as gate number 13. So i sat besides the gate. Since even after 10 35 boarding was not announced. I checked with the counter and they said the boarding has been completed. But the display board near the gate was showing tuticorin all the time which they later said was due to some technical error and that the feed was not sent properly. They directed me to the ticket counter and said they will get me the next immediate flight. When i approached the counter they asked me to pay for the ticket. After fighting for like 30mins they reduced the amount to 2500rs. I don't know why they are doing the checklist thing while boarding if they can't find that all has not yet boarded. All the staff at the counter were so hostile. I will attach with this mail pictures of tickets, and the extra ticket they made me take. They didn't even provide me a receipt for the payment. So i did card payment and i have the bank copy. If some airlines miss a passenger boarding it's usually their duty to arrange the next flight. I came to chennai from pune and that's why i reached so early. Due to lack of memory i am unable to load the pics. Anyway last time i am booking an indigo flight Was this information helpful? | |||
Apr 25, 2019 Complaint marked as Resolved IndiGo customer support has been notified about the posted complaint. Verified Support Mar 25, 2019 IndiGo Customer Care's response Hi Pranoy, We understand missing a flight could be distressful. However, to ensure a hassle-free experience for everyone, we have to follow certain protocols like closing the boarding gate before 25 mins of flight departure. Sadly, you had reported at 1040 hrs for the flight scheduled to depart at 1045 hrs. Hence, we were unable to allow onboard. Further, we would like to inform that the flight information displays are updated, maintained and operated by the concerned airport authorities, upon which we have limited access to the same. Our endeavour is to assist our valued passengers at all times, therefore, our airport team offered you to accommodate on the next available flight subject to payment of applicable charges, which were accepted by you. We are hopeful that you will understand that re-accommodation is not followed as a policy and was offered purely with the intention to help the passengers reach the destination at the earliest. Please be assured that we always remain committed to assist our esteemed passengers in the best possible manner. Regards, Team IndiGo | |||
