By Molten Metal •
Hello,
A colleague flying out from Dubai had the ticket for New
Delhi - boarded the plane for New Delhi..... but landed
at Mumbai !!
He was put on a wrong plane with the mistake of air line
offcials !!
If you are about to travel for summer vacation ....
Wish you safe journey & landing at intended air port !!

Hi aunty,.. yes it is shocking. but on second thoughts, i think the manglore airport authorities have no option other than sending him back to dubai... i think they have no authority to transport him to dhaka(Bangladesh) coz its a diff country... unlike our guyz friend in this forum... which is from mumbai to delhi(same country)
leojose, the news is shocking, the father was supposed to attend his child's funeral in Dhaka and he was sent back to Dubai...
Sometimes authorities take such decisions, those cannot be understood.
But one should dare not forgetting wife's .
Well, we have people like this - my brother can't even remember his own date of birth.
Why blame India for the usual scandalous treatment of expatriates when the whole situation happened in Dubai and could be rectified there itself. They say you can have all the money but never the brains
That guy is super cool, he lives in his own world.
He was living on bachelor status for a decade .... & as
in most cases .... he was nervous [ like that other lady
which 'Ghazal' has mentioned ] to meet his wife...
after good 11 months .
Mike : It is not easy to come up to 'others
expectations .... you know !
It was one/same air line operating two different flights
to two different destinations at almost same time of
departure.
Check in staff & the passenger himself were indeed not
paying attention to what was happening, among others ...
This started at 'check in' counter, where 'they' issued
him a boarding pass with error which was never [ yes ]
detected by 'a n y o n e' till the passenger landed at
wrong / not intended destination.
ahhhh what a shame he didnt land in UK lol
They both are made for each other :D
But that lady belongs to the State of Kerala.
No,
He plane was direct Dubai to Mumbai.
Mike , may be he was in sleeping mode & had a round trip , he cudnt manage to wake up at delhi airport instead landed in Mumbai airport ;D
Molten, so your guy couldn't hear when the pilot and cabin crew announced their destination? LoL, that's hilarious!
I was on my way to Deya, Mallorca to work on my tan and ended up in Doha :O(
She was coming to meet her 'own' husband & may be a bit
nervous , you know ..
It needs a big heart and a big brain lolzzz!
My husband told me that she was coming here on visit visa to meet her husband.
may be .... she woke up thinking ....
I am coming ....I am coming ....I am coming
but in reality
she was g o i n g !!
Some of you might have remembered a similar incident, a lady from India had a round trip on Qatar Airways flight... because she had fallen asleep and couldn't manage to wake up at Doha airport.
Haha, I wouldn't mind that, unless I were pressed for time. They would compensate with a free ride to actual destination, and I'd have visited another city/country (technically).
Was reading a blog on TOI where the author was not happy with the repetitive levels of security check at the Indian airports...guess, they know why they have to do that...:)
once one of my friends was heading to Birmingham UK and eventually has landed in Birmingham, AL, USA instead!
He is a 'extra' cool guy , he strictly keeps to himself
in his daily life too.
Lucky he was & given the free ride on the next available
flight from Mumbai to New Delhi !
Now the the mystery still remains ... which air line ???
mistake of Airline, he can sue the Airline and get full compensation.
How did he reached Delhi?, IS your friend an Illiterate, did not see at the boarding gate, Flight number and Sector
Wish you safe journey & landing at intended air port !!
lols.... i hope i dont land up in some other place rather than Mumbai & that too in Ramadan ;)
