Jammu/Srinagar, Dec. 6 -- Chaos was witnessed at Jammu airport after IndiGo cancelled all 11 flights from the city on Friday, while ticket prices of other airlines skyrocketed, leaving passengers at the receiving end. In Srinagar, 16 flights of IndiGo and one of SpiceJet were cancelled. Ashwani Handa, 50, a government official, said, he had to catch an Indigo flight to Mumbai on Thursday to attend an important meeting. "I'm still stuck in Jammu on Friday afternoon" he said. Handa said that following the cancellation of IndiGo flights, other domestic airlines had increased their fares exorbitantly. "They are charging Rs.50,000 per passenger from Jammu to Mumbai," he said. The normal one-way fare from Jammu to Mumbai in economy class ranges between Rs.12,000 to Rs.15,000 a passenger, depending on availability. The normal Srinagar-Delhi IndiGo fare is Rs.3,500 to Rs.4,500, but passengers complained that other airlines were charging up to Rs.7,000 on the route for last-minute bookings. Many passengers, who had left for the Srinagar airport early in the morning in freezing conditions, had to return. "I had to board the morning flight to Delhi but after waiting for two hours in the cold, I was forced to return after the official told us that all IndiGo flights had been cancelled," said Javid, a businessman. When contacted, Jammu airport director Devendra Yadav said that IndiGo had notified its passengers about the flight cancellation. "While all 11 IndiGo flights have been cancelled, four flights to Leh, Srinagar and Delhi are being operated normally by Spicejet, Air India and Air India Express," he said. Yadav claimed that the authorities were keeping a watch on the fares and there was no exorbitant spike in fares....
