Putting tens of thousands of passengers in difficulty, Air India Express cancelled/delayed over 90 international and domestic flights with a section of crew members reporting sick en masse on May 7.
Kerala was hit hardest by the flight disruptions, as the airline is the largest player from the State in the international sector.
Over 30 services, each flight having carrying capacity of 180 passengers, were cancelled in Kerala alone. As many as nine services, including three arrivals and four departures, were cancelled at the Thiruvananthapuram airport while the airline cancelled seven services, including four arrivals and three departures, at the Cochin international airport.
