About 2 hours before catching the flight, Aditya got to know that he would need to cancel his Udaipur-bound flight from Delhi. Hearing this, he booked a ticket on an IndiGo aircraft to continue his journey to Udaipur from Delhi. Mentioning the information about receiving the confirmation from Vistara and booking an IndiGo ticket to Udaipur from Delhi, he also requested that Vistara refund the amount which is equivalent to what he spent because of the inconveniences.
This is one of the many recent incidents where passengers faced different problems while flying on a plane.
