DGCA reviews IndiGo's disruption response; airline seeks more time for analysis

• DGCA is reviewing IndiGo's initial response regarding widespread flight disruptions in early December.
• IndiGo has sought more time for a full root-cause analysis, stating exact causes are not yet pinpointable.
• The airline attributed disruptions to technical glitches, winter schedule, adverse weather, system congestion, and crew rostering challenges from FDTL Phase II norms.
• IndiGo acknowledged that issues from the revised FDTL framework were already under discussion with the DGCA.
• On December 5, IndiGo implemented a "network-wide reboot" with mass cancellations to decongest airports and reposition crew/aircraft.

Why It Matters: IndiGo's flight issues under DGCA review could affect future air travel.
