IndiGo's 2025 flight cancellations due to crew shortages caused mass disruptions and record airfare spikes across India.
Between December 5–7, 2025, IndiGo faced a major aviation crisis in India as pilot and crew shortages linked to new duty rules forced the cancellation of over 1,000 flights, stranding thousands of passengers.
Airfares on key domestic routes, including Delhi-Mumbai and Delhi-Bengaluru, spiked to ₹35,000–₹88,000—far above normal ₹5,000–₹9,000 rates and, in some cases, exceeding international fares to Dubai or Bangkok.
Limited alternatives on Air India, SpiceJet, and others led to sold-out bookings and poor passenger conditions.
The Directorate General of Civil Aviation granted IndiGo a temporary exemption from certain regulations until February 10, 2026, to aid recovery, with fares stabilizing by late December, exposing systemic weaknesses in India’s aviation sector.
Las cancelaciones de vuelos de IndiGo en 2025 debido a la escasez de tripulación causaron interrupciones masivas y aumentos récord en las tarifas aéreas en toda la India.
