Flight to Delhi cancelled, second incident in two days

Jaipur:  Most smaller aircraft operating between Jaipur and Delhi are giving a harrowing time to air travellers. In a second incident in two days, a Delhi-bound flight was cancelled at 9.45 am on Sunday, that too after passengers boarded the aircraft.

The pilot of a SpiceJet Q-400 aircraft carrying 65 passengers gave the same old reason of "technical snag".

"It always happens with these aircraft. We waited for our departure and finally around 12 pm we were accommodated on a different flight," said Himanshu Shukla, a businessman and one of the passengers on the cancelled flight.

While some passengers entered into an argument with the airlines staff and were accommodated in other airlines like Jet Airways, a few of them opted for cancellation.

Earlier on Friday, the pilot of a Delhi-bound ATR aircraft of Jet airways decided not to fly and gave a similar reason.
