IndiGo Crisis LIVE Updates | Pilots’ body hits out at DGCA’s ‘unsafe’ exemption to IndiGo amid mass cancellations
Pilots' body Airlines' Pilots Association (ALPA) India on Friday took "strong" objection to safety regulator DGCA's "selective and unsafe" relief to domestic carrier IndiGo, amid widescale cancellations, saying the decision sets a dangerous precedent.
The Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) earlier in the day granted IndiGo temporary exemption from stricter night duty rules for pilots.
In a letter to the DGCA on Friday, ALPA-India said the decision not only sets a "dangerous precedent" but also undermines the very principle and purpose of the civil aviation requirement under which the norms have been formulated.
It also said on the pretext of passenger inconvenience, IndiGo is seeking relief despite having knowingly increased their winter operations while being fully aware of the implementation of the second phase of the pilots' flight duty and rest period norms.

"With these actions, we expect tomorrow to have cancellations below 1,000. The support of DGCA, in providing specific FDTL implementation relief, is of great help," Elbers said.

IndiGo Crisis LIVE Updates | No info about flight disruptions, expensive alternate options: Passengers share ordeal
The ordeal of IndiGo passengers does not seem to ebb with many complaining that the airline is still not communicating to them about flight delays and cancellations, all of which was adding to the travel cost.
Muneeb Chaurasiya had a flight on Thursday from Gorakhpur in Uttar Pradesh to Mumbai along with a friend and his mother. But when he reached Gorakhpur airport, which is 44 kilometres from his residence, to take the 4 pm flight, he was told that it was delayed.
At 9 pm, the airlines communicated to him that the flight has been cancelled and rescheduled to Friday. On Friday, when Chaurasiya reached the airport, he was again told that the flight had been cancelled. "It is not like Mumbai where one has good public transport.
Coming to the airport alone costs Rs 2,000 one way. I made this journey four times (two times to and fro) which cost me Rs 8,000 and my ticket to Mumbai was Rs 10,000," said Chaurasiya. Frustrated, he sought full refund from Indigo and booked train tickets to Mumbai since fares of other airlines have shot up to Rs 53,000 per person. "It was not just my flight that was delayed.
