Similar Incidents at Hyderabad Airport
On October 5, multiple IndiGo flights were delayed due to a system outage, causing major disruptions for passengers at Hyderabad Airport. Reports indicate that IndiGo’s system slowdown began at 12:30 PM, affecting operations across the country. The glitch disrupted check-ins and luggage management, leading to long queues and delays for more than 25 flights.
Additionally, during the outage, IndiGo’s self-drop baggage counters were non-functional, forcing passengers to wait in long lines for manual check-in. The situation was further aggravated by increased travel demand due to the Dasara weekend.
In another incident, an IndiGo flight from Hyderabad to Bengaluru was forced to return without landing due to dense fog at Kempegowda International Airport. The flight, which departed from Rajiv Gandhi International Airport (RGIA) and approached Bengaluru at 7:20 AM, was unable to land due to poor visibility. The aircraft circled the airport for over 45 minutes before being rerouted.
