An individual wrote, “Saw a similar seat while flying Indigo from Mumbai to Indore last week. They fixed the cushion only after the actual passenger turned up. Maybe they are facing cushion shortage and using it as per demand!”

A second joked, “What fee does one have to pay to book such a therapeutic seat with an acupressure facility.”

“Do you still need to ‘fasten your seat belts,'” commented a third.

A fourth said, “Indigo has really declined in services over the past couple of years.”
