The country's largest airline faced unprecedented disruption in December ​due to poor pilot roster planning.

India relaxed two provisions related ‌to ‌night duty for IndiGo pilots until February 10 ⁠to enable the airline to stabilise its operations, a move that ⁠had invited ⁠criticism from pilot unions and ‌safety advocates.

An IndiGo ‌spokesperson did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Earlier ‍this month, India fined IndiGo $2.45 million, issued warnings to senior executives and directed the airline to remove the head of its operations control ​from his ‌duties after the disruptions.
