A recent Indigo flight took an amusing turn when a passenger noticed her seat was lacking something quite essential—its cushion!
Yavanika Raj Shah shared her puzzled experience on the Bengaluru to Bhopal flight, snapping an empty-seats shot that soon went viral. Curious flyers speculated whether cushions were being pinched mid-air!
Stepping in, the airline clarified that the cushions had simply been removed for cleaning between trips as standard procedure. The crew had duly alerted those seated there.
While some joked this was Indigo’s novel ‘minimalist lounge’ concept, others opined shortages may be to blame. But most were just glad an explanation followed, avoiding any bumpy landing!
Indigo assured that the highest hygiene remains a priority. And it seems flyers can relax, for missing cushions tend to have rational reasons after all. This episode served as a funny reminder that travel glitches happen, but transparency and care for customers count most in the skies.
