Subject: Complaint Regarding Flight Delay by IndiGo Airlines Causing Missed International Connection and Financial Loss




Dear Sir/Madam,


I am writing to lodge a formal complaint against IndiGo Airlines for negligence and poor service that caused me to miss my connecting international flight and incur a substantial financial loss.


Details of the Incident:


  • Name: Surabhi Raman
  • PNR / Booking Reference: CBLF6H
  • Flight Number: 6E1703 (Kolkata – Guangzhou)
  • Scheduled Departure: 22:00 hrs, 8th November 2025, from Kolkata (CCU)
  • Scheduled Arrival: 04:05 hrs, 9th November 2025, at Guangzhou (CAN)
  • Connecting Flight Missed: Spring Airlines 9C6159 (Guangzhou – Osaka Kansai), departing 05:55 hrs on 9th November 2025
  • Alternative Ticket Purchased: China Southern Airlines CZ8107 (Guangzhou – Osaka), costing INR 33,000 (Booking Order No: Go251109302898800042)

Due to an IndiGo flight delay, I arrived in Guangzhou later than scheduled and consequently missed my onward international connection to Japan. Since I had important academic commitments in Japan and there was no assistance provided by IndiGo, I had no choice but to purchase a new ticket at my own expense.


Despite repeated assurances on-time performance, IndiGo’s delays have caused significant inconvenience, stress, and financial burden.


Relief Sought:


  1. Full reimbursement of INR 41,000 spent on the rebooked ticket.
  2. Compensation for the inconvenience and disruption caused.
  3. An official explanation from IndiGo regarding the delay and lack of assistance for affected passengers.

Supporting Documents Attached:


  1. IndiGo Flight Itinerary (Gaya–Kolkata–Guangzhou)
  2. Missed Spring Airlines Flight (Guangzhou–Osaka)
  3. China Southern Airlines Ticket (New booking for INR 33,000)
  4. Payment proof of the rebooked ticket

I kindly request the Consumer Forum to take appropriate action under the Consumer Protection Act, 2019, for deficiency in service and unfair trade practice.


Thank you for your attention. I look forward to a prompt and fair resolution.


Sincerely,
Surabhi Raman
