Indigo flight cancellation spiral

Since Tuesday, when the crisis spilled into public view, IndiGo has cancelled roughly 1,500 flights. The airline, which operates about 60% of India’s domestic market, had already been struggling through November, during which it cancelled an average of more than 25 flights a day due to its inability to comply with new duty-time norms.

Scenes of unrest were reported from several airports on Friday, with passengers posting videos on social media showing groups shouting slogans at airline counters.

IndiGo cancelled 1,000 flights on Friday alone, compounding the pressure on major hubs.
