Inside the Parliament on Tuesday (9 December 2025), Union Minister Ram Mohan Naidu clearly said that the situation is improving, action will be taken against those responsible and refunds are being given to the people affected by the crisis. Despite this claim of the Union Minister, it seems that the situation has not improved yet. On Wednesday (10 December 2025) also, more than 300 flights have been cancelled. Even on December 9, more than 400 flights were cancelled.
The airline is still trying to stabilize operations under the strict monitoring of the DGCA and the Aviation Ministry, but the government has already ordered the airline to reduce flights by 10% until the situation returns to normal. In such a situation, for the next few months, several hundred flights will be affected every day, in which passengers have already booked.
Advisory issued, check status before leaving
An advisory has been issued to passengers asking them to check the status of their flight before reaching the airport, as changes in the schedule are possible even at the last moment. According to news agency PTI, the Civil Aviation Ministry said on Tuesday (9 December 2025) that IndiGo has been ordered to reduce its flight schedule by 10 percent. Doing this will help the troubled airline to stabilize its operations.
How many flights have been canceled so far
After the implementation of the second phase of new flight service rules, there has been huge chaos in the operations of IndiGo. During this period, more than 4,000 flights were cancelled, while hundreds of flights were operated late. Civil Aviation Minister K. Rammohan Naidu said in a statement that IndiGo Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Peter Albers was summoned to the ministry so that he could give information about the situation. He told that Albers confirmed that 100 percent refund of the affected flights will be completed till December 6.
