Budget airline forgets 55 passengers

Because an Indian low-cost airline Go First recently forgot 55 passengers, the airline now has to pay one million rupees (equivalent to CHF 11,000).

Three weeks ago, an Indian low-cost airline Go First took off – and forgot 55 passengers. Due to a communication error, the machine took off from Bengaluru in the direction of the capital Delhi without the people already waiting in a bus. Now the airline has to pay one million rupees (about CHF 11,000). The Indian civil aviation authority ordered this, as Indian media reported on Friday.

The ground staff and the crew of the airline’s machine had misunderstood each other, it was said at the time. A total of four buses were used to bring passengers to flight G8 116. Only one was stopped for reasons that have not yet been clarified. In it sat 55 people with boarding passes and luggage tags – but only their checked suitcases made it into the machine.
