IndiGo Crisis: 600+ Flights Canceled, Kanjrapu Rammohan Naidu Intervenes

• IndiGo is experiencing widespread flight cancellations and delays, with over 600 flights canceled today and 1500+ in the last two days.
• The cancellations have caused chaos and frustration for passengers at major airports like Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Hyderabad, and Pune.
• The Civil Aviation Ministry, led by Minister Kanjrapu Rammohan Naidu, has intervened, expressing displeasure and issuing strict instructions to IndiGo.
• The crisis stems from IndiGo's lack of planning for new Flight Duty Time Limitation (FDTL) rules and a miscalculation of pilot numbers.
• New FDTL rules increase pilot rest periods and limit night landings, which IndiGo admits it miscalculated.

Why It Matters: Government intervenes in IndiGo's flight crisis, impacting air travel and airline rules.
