It was disgusting show put up by the most luxury liner of our nation. Off late Kingfisher Airlines seems to be in news for all wrong reasons. In the latest incident that occurred in Bangalore on Thursday the experience of the travelling group was pitiable. A group of twelve members were left stranded at the Bangalore airport enroute to Mangalore, when their connecting flight departed before their flight from Delhi reached much behind the schedule. To the dismay of the passengers the ground staff of the airline, were neither helpful nor accommodative. In the end the last issue that blew the whistle was when the airline authorities ask them to reach their destination by an arranged Innova car.

The event unfolds as Vincent Lobo, a Delhi-ba¬sed travel agent, and 11 others were issued boarding passes for their Delhi-Bangalore-Mangalore Kin¬gfisher flight. At Bangalore International Airport (BIA), they were to be put on a connecting Kingfisher flight bound for Mangalore. But the Delhi-Bangalore sector flight — IT-203 that was to take off from Delhi’s Indira Gandhi International Airport at 9:55 am — took off nearly four-and-half hours behind schedule, citing reasons that the weather was foggy. Eventually Lobo missed the connecting flight to Mangalore. With the boarding passes for both the flights issued at the origin they were in a hapless state. After many pleas the airline staff accommodated only four passengers by the last evening flight and the rest were left behind as accommodation was full on the flight.

For the rest eight members the airlines staff had asked them to travel by an arranged car to Mangalore. The passengers refused for the seven hour bumpy journey by road.
