12 Air India passengers stranded

New Delhi: Several passengers of a Hyderabad-bound Air India flight weren’t allowed to board the aircraft Sunday morning due to “overbooking” by the airline.
The passengers said IC 942 left at its scheduled time of 10 am, leaving behind 12 passengers who had valid tickets.
“I had booked my ticket in April but was still denied a seat. I had an important exam in Hyderabad and was forced to buy the ticket of another airline,” Tripti Nashire, an MBA student, said.
The passengers were asked to wait for more than six hours to be accommodated in the 4.30 p.m evening flight.
