Indian Airlines passengers suffer 22-hour delay

Sharjah: About 150 passengers of an Indian Airlines flight scheduled to leave Sharjah for Cochin were stranded at Sharjah International Airport for over 22 hours following a technical snag.
The flight, IC 976, scheduled to leave for Cochin at 9.30 pm on Friday night, left at 7.30 pm last evening.
According to the passengers, “we have been left in a lurch as airline officials failed to give us any proper reply regarding our flight status.”
Another passenger pointed out that some passengers were on visit visa and were thus forced to spend all night at the airport, as they could not exit the airport after having checked in.
An Indian Airlines official when contacted confirmed the delay. He claimed that the flight was delayed because of a technical snag.
