Indigo flight cancellations
India's largest airline caused widespread chaos when it cancelled hundreds of flights across the country, leaving airports overwhelmed and passengers stranded, in early December.
The airline has since then apologised multiple times, issued refunds, and offered travel vouchers to affected passengers.
However, with December 5, the day with the largest number of cancellations, serving as a "reboot" for the airline, flights steadily resumed. As of December 13, the network had over 2,000 flights set to operate, and "on-time performance at IndiGo standards", according to a statement.
