Chaotic scenes persisted at airports across the country as IndiGo’s flight delays stretched into Thursday (December 4, 2025), forcing the cancellation of at least 280 flights across five major airports. The disruption also hit other carriers, which were forced to cancel some flights as IndiGo aircraft occupied parking bays amid lack of available crew.
