- The DGCA issued show‑cause notices to CEO Pieter Elbers and the accountable manager over planning and oversight lapses linked to the FDTL roster rollout, and granted a 24‑hour extension to file replies.
- The Civil Aviation Ministry reported largely normal terminal conditions at major airports and moved to protect passengers with fare caps, a control room and directives on refunds and baggage delivery.
- IndiGo said it has processed about Rs 610 crore in refunds and returned around 3,000 separated bags so far, set up a board‑level crisis management group and expects full network stability by December 10.
- Passenger hardship persisted with long waits, rebookings and missing luggage, while the pilot union warned that pausing revised fatigue rules to hasten recovery could undermine safety.
