Spice Jet Airlines — Horrible airlines with morning even basic medical facilities

Everyone always told me that Spicejet is a bad airline but I never really paid heed to it.
However, me and my family (Mom, Dad and Me) were in for a shock on 11th May when we travelled on the flight number GF5SRE from DEL-MAA with departure scheduled at 14:40.

We were seated by 2:20 and we kept waiting to fly off. The plane was very suffocated with dirty seats. The AC wasn't working properly. Many passengers complained to the crew about the poor state of cooling and the crew said that it will get better when we fly off.

The aircraft didn't move from its place till 3:10pm. We were all sweating by then. We asked the crew multiple times about the delay in take off and they said that there is some approval issue.

Then the plane started to take rounds of the runway and went round and round for close to 20-25 mins. The plane finally took off at 3:36pm.

My dad was seated in row 23 in the aisle seat while mom and me were seated in the 25th row - Right in front of the lavatory.

Suddenly my dad started feeling uneasy because of the suffocation inside the aircraft and the heat and specially the fact that we were stuck in that aircraft without flying off for about 1 hour.

He was experiencing nausea and suddenly fainted close to us. My mom and dad are doctors (thank god for that) so mom immediately suggested that he be laid down and we must raise his legs to increase the blood flow to heart and brain. However, we were shocked to find that there was no sickness bay or even a slab where he could've been laid. The crew helped us out a lot but neither did they have a bedsheet or any area where my dad could be laid down. Also, it was said that the aircraft is full so we can't even lay him down on any of the seats.

We were forced to lay him down in the aisle and we raised his legs.
There was no official medical help or doctor on the airplane. The plane even didn't have any basic medical equipments like a BP apparatus etc.
They didn't even have a bedsheet on board. When asked, the crew mentioned that they had nothing because it's a low cost airline.
How is a Rs 4600 flight per person a low cost airline. And are we supposed to believe that there is no value of life in a low cost airline ????

Then my dad had to be rested down for a while so we took him to the service area in the back and he laid down on the floor for an hour while I sat next to him on the floor.

I am ashamed that such airlines with such facilities operate in our country. The cabin crew tried to help us out a lot but even they were helpless as they had no facilities on board.

I am going to sue spicejet. Had anything happened to my father I would've filed a case against this airline ( I read an article online where it said that in Jan2017, a female passenger barely 34 years old collapsed and died on a spicejet flight)

Shame on Spicejet for not keeping any basic facilities online and to have such horrible seating and cooling facilities in the name of a low cost airline.

I will make sure that no one from who I can influence ever travels in these so called irresponsible 'low cost airlines'.

I am also going to lodge a complaint with the aviation ministry.

Wait and watch!
