[Mumbai]Jet Airways Overbooked, So Stranded Passengers High jacked Flight
A Jet Airways flight from the city to Bhopal had a “near-hijack type” situation after airline’s ticketing system allowing booking beyond the capacity, with a family booking 80 tickets in bulk.
The plane was delayed for more than two hours at the city airport as irate passengers got into a verbal duel with each other as well as the airline staff, and did not allow the flight to takeoff.
The issue took place on Jet flight (9W 7083) to Bhopal yesterday.
The matter was finally resolved after the overbooked passengers (a large family headed for a wedding in Bhopal) were denied boarding and the airline compensating them.
