Passengers stranded as IndiGo cancels flight to Bengaluru

More than 100 passengers were left stranded at the Lohegaon airport here after the Bengaluru-bound IndiGo flight, which earlier failed to arrive from Bengaluru due to bad weather condition there, was cancelled at the last moment on Monday morning.
The incoming flight was scheduled to reach Pune from Bengaluru at 6.50am and later leave for Bengaluru at 7.30am.
Amit Pathak, who was waiting at the Pune airport for the flight, tweeted to IndiGo's twitter handle (@IndiGo6E), "Stranded. 6e391 cancelled."
Another flier who was coming to Pune from Bengaluru, tweeted "IndiGo6E flight delayed due to bad weather and cancelled as Pune airport won't give permission to land in Pune as it's a defence base."
IndiGo airlines claimed that prompt steps were taken to assist passengers both in Pune and Bengaluru, but sources said several passengers were inconvenienced due to the cancellation of the flights.
In Pune, passengers were told about the cancellation of the flight after the check-in process was completed and boarding passes were handed over.
