If you travel regularly on planes, then you may have had certain bad experiences. Maybe your flight got delayed, maybe you couldn’t locate your luggage or maybe you simply had a bumpy ride; there can be any number of reasons for one’s travel to go awry. Recently, the famous singer Ankit Tiwari also had a similar experience when he flew with IndiGo. He took to his social media to vent his frustration.
Ankit Tiwari Rants About His Bad IndiGo Flight
It has taken a lot of patience for me to finally tweet this about @IndiGo6E I have had the worst travel experience with them so far.

Ankit Tiwari, the famous and talented singer, recently had a terrible flight experience with IndiGo. He was to fly to Kanpur, his hometown with his wife and daughter however, his flight was delayed and he was not informed of it. According to an article recently published by Bollywood Hungama, he had to take another connecting flight.
Where I was going to reach my hometown Kanpur at 1:48 pm I am still standing in the middle of the airport waiting for my luggage. @IndiGo6E

However, his nightmare did not end there. He was initially supposed to arrive at 1:48 PM, but hours after his initial time of arrival, he was still stranded at the airport with his wife and daughter looking for his luggage. The Bollywood Hungama article goes on to say that his luggage actually arrived at two different conveyor belts or carousels.
Still haven’t received it yet with the staff being absolutely clueless with no time management or informative facilities available for their passengers. Since 45mins plus with my wife and daughter..@IndiGo6E

He was initially confused and it took him as well as the airport security quite a while to understand what the problem was. Understandably frustrated, he took to his social media and ranted about his horrible experience while tagging the official handle of IndiGo on X (formerly known as Twitter).

While ranting, he stated this was the “heights of carelessness and mismanagement” that he had seen. He also went on to specify that he had to wait for more than 45 minutes. This is not the first time that IndiGo has been in hot waters. Celebrities like Rana Daggubatti and Niti Taylor have also shared their bad experiences when flying with IndiGo.
Heights of carelessness and mismanagement. Absolutely disappointing. Worst airlines ever.@IndiGo6E

Edelweiss CEO also recently shared a bad experience she had with IndiGo on social media in a post that now has been deleted. And not just celebrities, many regular people, too, have had terrible experiences with IndiGo. Last month, an elderly couple were left stranded at the Istanbul Airport when they missed their flight. This happened because despite asking to be notified, they weren’t told when the flight started boarding.

As a result, they missed their flight. The couple needed medical support and were vegetarians so they had to pass that time solely on bread and Coca-Cola.
