More Kingfisher flights cancelled as pilots stay away

Mumbai/Bangalore: Twenty-two arrivals and 18 departure cancellations of just one airline at one airport on Tuesday. Things couldn't have gone worse for the ‘King of Good Times'!
Flight operations of the beleaguered Kingfisher Airlines were further affected on Tuesday as more pilots did not report for duty to protest the delay in their salary payment.
At Bangalore, which normally sees 40-50 movements from Kingfisher on a day, there were very few take-offs or landings by the airline on Tuesday, said a spokesperson.
At least four flights that were scheduled to take off from Mumbai on Tuesday were cancelled. The domestic sectors affected due to the flight cancellations were Mumbai, Delhi, Bangalore, Ahmedabad and Hyderabad.
