Mumbai: Around 50 passengers of SpiceJet flight SG 14 that landed in Mumbai airport from Dubai on Tuesday morning were in for a shock after they found that their respective baggage was missing.
When the affected passengers started creating a ruckus at the airport terminal, airline officials informed them that their luggage had not been loaded at Dubai as they had exceeded the weight limit. The passengers were told that they would get their bags on the next flight from Dubai.
Confirming this, an official from Mumbai airport informed The Asian Age that SpiceJet flight SG 14 landed at Mumbai airport around 9 am on Tuesday after departing from Dubai around 4 am with around 220 passengers. Later, when around 50 passengers went to the baggage carousel, they realised that their baggage was missing.
Pawan Gentual, an LIC agent by profession and a passenger of the said flight, said his bag, which contained an iPhone was missing and when he approached the ground staff, they told him that the baggage would arrive on Wednesday. Mr Gentaul, who hails from Solapur, was planning to proceed there but said he has now been forced to stay at a relative’s place in Pune to come back to Mumbai again on Wednesday.
