AIZAWL, June 11 : Irritated
passengers filed an FIR against Jet Airways in Mizoram. Furious over
flight cancellation and non-provision of alternative flight, a group of
irritated flight passengers have submitted an FIR against a private
flight service plying in the Lengpui (Aizawl airport), Guwahati and
Kolkata section. The FIR has been submitted to Sairang police station,
after two days of which an alternative flight was provided. On June 5,
Jet Airways had cancelled its flight for Aizawl- Kolkata on ground of
inclement weather. But then, about the same time, Air India flight from
Kolkata arrived at Lengpui airport and also departed again, and the
weather was also favourable.
Passengers said that they went to Jet Airways counter and informed of their problems, on which they were replied that the ticket was overbooked for June 6-8. They also said that the Jet Airways officer in-charge declined their request to approach higher authority besides saying that they could do nothing.
