SpiceJet Passengers Face Heat, Discomfort 'Delhi-Pune Flight'

Scores of SpiceJet passengers faced a difficult time on a Pune-bound aircraft due to an air conditioning issue on Tuesday, and another plane was arranged to operate the Pune flight.

Video clips shared on social media showed many passengers standing inside the aircraft and fanning themselves, apparently due to heat.

An airline spokesperson in a statement on Wednesday said the



flight SG 105, scheduled to operate from Delhi to Pune, encountered a last-minute technical issue on Tuesday and an alternate aircraft was arranged to operate the flight.

"The air conditioning remained operational throughout. Due to prevailing weather conditions in Delhi, some passengers may have experienced discomfort," the spokesperson said and deeply regretted the inconvenience caused to the passengers.
