Errors on flight info screen at Mumabi airport

Passengers arriving at Terminal 1A of the Chhattrapati Shivaji International Airport are facing a tough time as the flight information display screens show incorrect messages. On Monday, the status of IC 866, Indian’s Goa-Mumbai flight, which arrived at Mumbai airport at 8 am, was being displayed as ‘Expected at 8.15 am’.
G8 105, GoAir’s Mumbai-Goa flight, which left Mumbai at 2.10 pm, was shown to be ‘Rescheduled for 2.35 pm’. While the status of IT 640, Kingfisher’s Mumbai-Delhi flight, which left the city at 3.45 am was still being shown as ‘Now Boarding’ even at 4.00 am.
The display errors have left passengers and their relatives perplexed.
Conceding that the display screens were erroneous, an airport official said, “We keep receiving complaints from agitated passengers and have seen for ourselves that the exact status of flights on the flight information display screens is often wrong.”
The erroneous nature of the screens is similar at the Chhattrapati Shivaji
International Airport at Sahar.
