IndiGo Airlines cancelled another 50 flights due to shortage of pilots on Wednesday. The airlines cancelled about 75 flights over the weekend and at least 32 on Monday. According to India Today, the airlines said the reason was network disruption due to the bad weather. Even on Sunday, budget major IndiGo continued to cancel multiple domestic flights across the country as its flight operations have been "badly disrupted" after hailstorm lashed parts of north India last week. The carrier cancelled around 15 flights on Saturday and around seven on Sunday, Delhi airport officials said. "The airline has been facing problems in crew management. Therefore, these flights - which had to depart from Delhi yesterday and today - were cancelled," one of the airport officials said.
According to a statement issued by the airline earlier, 11 flights were diverted and a number of flights cancelled on February 7. "Due to a severe hailstorm in North India on Thursday, Feb 07, 2019, 11 IndiGo flights were diverted. Consequently, this disrupted operations across our network the following day.
"As part of recovering our schedule, the positioning of the crew and aircraft had to be readjusted. As a result, a number of flights were cancelled. We regret the inconvenience caused to our customers," IndiGo said in a statement to PTI.
