Consumer forum dismisses complaint over delay of Kingfisher flight

Chandigarh: Finding no deficiency in services on the part of Kingfisher Airlines Limited, as per a complaint filed by a resident of Mohali, the UT Consumer Disputes Redressal Forum has dismissed a claim for compensation stating “reasons beyond control” of the aircraft in a case of flight delay.
Rupinder Singh had sought compensation for a delayed Kingfisher flight from Chandigarh to Mumbai, leaving no time for him and his family to board another flight from Mumbai to Nandel within a time margin of 1.45 hours. In his complaint, Singh alleged that he had to cancel his bookings and rebook his flight and accommodation as he missed the second flight, causing him mental tension and forcing him to extend his leave at work and his brother to miss an examination.
