Most of us love travelling on flights. The journeys are indeed more expensive in comparison to the train journeys but the duration is a lot less and travelling on a plane is comfortable as well. Even with cushioned seats and great views, our journeys are not always the sweetest. We often see passengers complaining about airlines causing inconveniences on social media. This time, an IndiGo passenger shared how the airline handled her luggage in a bad condition.
IndiGo Passenger Complained About Receiving A Damaged Luggage
Taking to X, Shrankhla Srivastava (@shrankhla3) shared a picture of how her travel bag was not at all handled properly by the airline.
Dear @IndiGo6E ,
Thank you for taking care of my luggage :) pic.twitter.com/LdgSHjWA1J— Shrankhla Srivastava (@shrankhla3) March 23, 2024
The picture shared by the X user showed how the luggage had been damaged. The sky-blue coloured suitcase with a trolley had a long and visible crack. It clearly showed how the airline mishandled pieces of luggage and failed to provide a better experience to passengers. Sharing the picture of her luggage with the damage, Shrankhla Srivastava sarcastically captioned, “Thank you for taking care of my luggage”.
It has been some time since IndiGo has been making headlines almost every other day for many passengers facing inconveniences during their travel journeys. From finding a screw in sandwich to delays and cancellations, many not-so-common incidents have taken place concerning the airline. Following the recent X post about receiving damaged luggage, other Netizens too started to voice their opinions and reviews of flying with the airline.
IndiGo responded to the X post.
Hi, we sincerely regret the inconvenience caused. We request you please allow us some time to check. We’ll connect with you. ~Mousmi

Never use hard shell luggage in India

IndiGo destroyed my American Tourister wheels on the Mumbai Bangalore Sector, for them destroying luggage is a norm, I have seen their baggage handlers putting luggage into the aircraft, they are least bothered, everyone can see if they are sitting on the opp side of the gate.

They will call you and say some random stuff in apology and assure you “We will look into the matter and get back to you soon.”
Consider this SOON as NEVER.
Better to pay some extra 💰 and fly with @airvistara— Dr. Rahul Chakravarty (@rahul7464) March 24, 2024
Atleast @IndiGo6E did acknowledge the issue some shameless carriers like @airfrance simply disown any responsibilities. Remember Indians ditch Air France, they are the most pathetic airline there can be.
