IndiGo Apologizes, Processes Refund After 3-Hour Onboard Delay on MumbaiRajkot Flight

The airline attributes the hold to an unforeseen operational issue, with a refund now processing.

Overview

  • Flight 6E 6133 was scheduled to depart Mumbai Terminal 2 for Rajkot at 7:25 am after boarding began around 6:45 am.
  • A passenger posting on X said crew told travellers the captain was late, a claim that contrasted with IndiGo’s reference to operational issues.
  • Delay alerts shifted the departure to 7:55 am, then 8:40 am, and later 10:30 am, leaving passengers seated onboard for more than three hours.
  • IndiGo issued an apology, said teams provided refreshments and assistance, and confirmed a refund that should reflect within 24–48 business hours.
  • The passenger acknowledged the refund but said the disruption ruined planned meetings and renewed calls online for clearer delay communication and accountability.
