We prefer travelling by plane, even though it is the most expensive of all travel options, because we expect it to be hassle-free and quick. Many times, you must have seen passengers tweet about their bad experiences. Well, those tweets are generally from one or two passengers about different airlines. But it looks like today was surely not a good day to fly with SpiceJet. Today, many SpiceJet passengers tweeted about their negative experiences on Twitter. Take a look.
Looks Like A Bad Day To Travel With SpiceJet
Twitter today is flooded with passengers tweeting about their SpiceJet experiences. It is strange to see that today most of the passengers had terrible experiences, like a delay in the flight or no wheelchair assistance. Let’s take a look at these tweets:
A passenger named Prassana Priyadarshi had web-checked his ticket from Darbhanga to Mumbai and paid an extra amount for a comfortable journey. But sadly, he was not assigned the seat he had booked. He went on to Twitter and shared his disappointment by tagging the prime minister, the ministry of civil aviation, and SpiceJet.
Hey @flyspicejet @Ministry_CA @JM_Scindia @PMOIndia
I have webchecked in my ticket from Mumbai to Darbhanga and choosen spiceplus by paying extra amount . The seat which I have selected was 5B and 5C. Now when I checked in to Mumbai airport, they have assigned different seat. pic.twitter.com/Zo5UfhFV7r— prasanna priyadarshi (@prasann30770150) February 28, 2023
Another passenger tweeted a video showing the chaos that was caused when SpiceJet’s flight SG8495 DEL-DBR (Delhi to Darbhanga) was delayed for over two hours. The passengers were not given proper answers regarding the delay, and hence chaos was caused at the airport.
Delayed Flight — 11:25 to 1:05 (estimated time)
Flight – SG8495 DEL-DBR
Condition of plane is very poor… @JM_Scindia @flyspicejet @Gen_VKSingh @PMOIndia #spicejet #poorservice pic.twitter.com/jBy78HJGnZ— Adv Tarun Bhardwaj (@AdvTarun4India) February 28, 2023
A SpiceJet flight from Goa to Pune was delayed by 150 minutes, and a passenger could not help but tweet the incident. The person who tweeted this, also tagged the Civil Aviation Minister, Jyotiraditya Scindia, and called the airlines the “most inefficient airline”.
A 45 min @flyspicejet flight from Goa to Pune is postponed by 150 min already due to “operations reasons”. The lady at the check in counter says it might further get delayed.
Is there something that can be done against this most inefficient airline? @JM_Scindia #SG526— TheLeo (@TheForcesGuy) February 28, 2023
Calling the airlines “pathetic,” a passenger tweeted about regretting the decision as she chose them again after being disappointed by it in January. She did not mention the issue but wrote about never choosing SpiceJet again in her life.
If there exists any pathetic aircraft, then undoubtedly it’s #spicejet . I am just feeling dumb that I have chosen them once again after the delay in January and you know what, I am never gonna book them again in my life. #spicejet #aviation #boycott_spicejet

A passenger needed wheelchair assistance and also carried a fit to fly certificate, but claimed on Twitter that the staff misbehaved with him. He also said that they were not interested in flying him with them.
