Not only was their flight delayed for nearly four hours, they were not allowed to disembark or take another flight, forcing them to remain inside all throughout. Flight AI 809, which was scheduled to depart from Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport at 11.15am, eventually took off at 2.34pm, due to a technical glitch, a passenger, Lakhvendra Khurana, told DNA. But, I got a message saying the flight was delayed and I should take AI 809 at 11.15am. Similarly, passengers who were to take a 1pm flight were informed of a reschedule and asked to check in early to board the same AI flight as ours. So, the passengers of both flights boarded AI 809, and then it was a long wait for the flight to take off.
