In the next post, he wrote, "The worst is that there will be nobody held accountable and so many people I have spoken to on this flight have lost so much money and go through massive inconvenience and no one will be compensated. Frustrating to see corporates operate at such free will where they fearlessly exploit everyone knowing there is nothing to lose. Never taking an @airindia flight again."

In his third post, the actor stated, "14 hours later without sleep and our luggage and yet another delay, I don't even know what to say anymore."

Recently, Bollywood actress Radhika Apte detailed her harrowing airport experience on social media. The Sacred Gamesactress revealed that several passengers, including herself, were locked on the aerobridge for several hours without any update, water or other assistance from the ground staff.

Sharing photos and videos of passengers, including those with small babies and elderly individuals, Apte criticised the airline staff for their lack of communication and the security personnel for not opening the doors promptly.

Her caption read, "I had to post this! Today morning I had an flight at 8:30. It’s 10:50 now and the flight has still not boarded. BUT the flight said we were boarding and put all the passengers in the aerobridge and LOCKED IT! The passengers with small babies, elderly people have been locked in for over an hour. The security won’t open the doors. The staff has ABSOLUTELY NO CLUE! Apparently their crew hasn’t boarded. The crew had the change and they are still waiting for new crew but they have no idea of when they will arrive so no one knows how long they’ll be locked inside. I managed to escaped briefly to speak to the very stupid staff woman outside who kept saying there is no issue and no delay :) now I’m locked inside AND they just told us that we will be here till minimum 12pm all locked in. No water no loo. Thanks for the fun ride!!"
