A heated argument broke out between passengers and the airline staff after tape was seen affixed to the window of a SpiceJet flight. According to a Dainik Bhaskar report, passengers grew angry upon seeing the tape on the aircraft window, which created a tense situation on the plane. A video of this entire incident is going viral on social media, though official information regarding when and where this incident took place has not yet been received.
During the incident, a female passenger noticed the tape on the window and was trying to peel it off. During this time, her arguments with the airline staff began. Afterwards, that woman started recording a video of this dispute. In the video, the female passenger can be seen showing the loose tape on the window and questioning the staff. The passengers raised the question that when the tape is already loose, how can the aircraft be called safe?
As the dispute escalated, another passenger also joined the arguments and he too started asking questions to the staff. According to a Times of India report, passengers expressed concern over the aircraft window panels being loose. During this, a passenger also asked who would guarantee the safety of the aircraft. Regarding this, the staff replied that the responsibility for the aircraft's safety is theirs.
The staff assured the passengers that the aircraft was completely safe for flight. However, during the dispute, the staff also told the passengers that if they were feeling uncomfortable, they could choose the option of not traveling. According to a Times of India report, the staff suggested to the passengers that those who do not wish to fly could leave.
In this video going viral on social media, the staff allowed the passengers to record the video and constantly repeated the same thing that the aircraft is safe for flight. This incident also highlights the challenges of airline communication and safety assurance. Currently, no official clarification has been issued by the airline regarding this window issue.
Along with this incident, another news report stated that an IndiGo flight going from Delhi to Chennai received a threat. After the message 'Do Not Fly' was found written in the aircraft's toilet, for security reasons, the flight had to be brought back to the bay at Delhi airport before takeoff and was inspected.
