New Delhi, Dec. 4 -- Amid delays and cancellations of IndiGo flights affecting travellers across India over the last two days, the airline on Thursday admitted misjudgment and planning gaps in implementing the second phase of the Flight Duty Time Limitations (FDTL) norms, and said that it will reduce flights from December 8.

The Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) that IndiGo has been experiencing a sharp rise in cancellations, reaching approximately 170-200 flights per day, which is substantially higher than normal.

IndiGo told aviation regulator DGCA that more cancellations will continue for the next 2-3 days as part of schedule stabilisation efforts.
