AirAsia Flight Canceled at Delhi’s IGI Airport Due to Technical Fault; Passengers Protest

An AirAsia flight departing from Delhi’s Indira Gandhi International (IGI) Airport was cancelled after a reported technical fault, sparking protests from affected passengers. The cancellation prompted immediate unrest in the departure area as travellers sought answers and alternatives. Frustration mounted when passengers claimed they received limited information and delayed assistance from airline staff. Ground personnel and airport security intervened to manage the situation and facilitate passenger queries. Passengers demanded rebooking, refunds and clear timelines for onward travel, while some vocally criticised the airline’s handling of the disruption. Airport officials coordinated with the carrier to assess the technical issue and to arrange accommodations and transport where required. Affected travellers were advised to contact the airline’s customer service desks for re-accommodation and compensation details. The incident temporarily disrupted gate operations and caused delays for other travellers in the vicinity. Airline and airport representatives said they were prioritising passenger safety and working to restore normal operations as quickly as possible. Further details on the cause of the technical fault, the flight number, and the number of passengers affected were not immediately available. Authorities indicated that a formal statement from the airline and the airport would follow once assessments were complete.
