Surendra Ghaskadbi tweeted: “SpiceJet flight from Pune to Ahmedabad scheduled to take off at 14.30 yet to take off. The initial delay has been compounded by malfunctioning AC (at 4.22 pm). Finally cancelled. I am returning home after enjoying time at Pune airport for 8 hours.”

Another flyer Yash tweeted: “At Pune Airport for the last 7 hours, SpiceJet is not capable of giving an appropriate reply, after waiting for over 4 hours they suddenly cancelled the flight and don’t have any other alternative flights too. Does such an airline deserve to be active?”
