According to foreign media such as the New York Post, Indigo Airlines passengers from Lucknow to Delhi, India, had to suffer from mosquitoes on the 21st (local time).
Videos taken by passengers at the time showed mosquitoes stuck to various places, including in-flight seats and luggage compartments on the seats.
For about 90 minutes of flight time, passengers complained of pain and asked the crew for help to no avail.
As a temporary measure, flight attendants handed out lemon grass patches used to fight mosquitoes to passengers, but they did not help much.
One passenger "scratching, chasing mosquitoes throughout the flight. I just hoped it would arrive soon," he said, expressing dissatisfaction with the airline and the airport's pest control.
Regarding the path through which the mosquitoes entered the cabin, an official estimated that it may have been introduced through an open door when passengers boarded.
The airline is regularly fumigating and attaching patches to seats to prevent the influx of pests such as mosquitoesWe are also working with airports to effectively solve this problem. We are taking all precautions, but please understand that mosquitoes can enter when the door is open."
