Tagging both MakeMyTrip and Air India, she wrote, "Perhaps the best way for substandard airlines to make a quick buck is to cancel flights without intimation, or change timings so you miss your connections! With the collusion of so-called convenient flight booking portals like @makemytrip. Thakela customer service at MakeMyTrip will ensure there’s no option for you to claim a refund, try it! If they owe you money, your booking id will “not exist”! Rude customer care chicks at Air India will ensure your business class fare is pocketed, won’t even apologise for changing timings last minute or being arrogant! Do yourself a favour, avoid these 2 SCAMSTERS in 2024! I hope your companies endure more losses than you have in all of your collective histories, saste cheats!"

The MakeMyTrip customer service gave her a standard reply, "Hi, regret for any inconvenience caused. We request you to kindly share your booking ID via DM so that we can resolve your concern at earliest."
Her post attracted a lot of comments and suggestions from fans who had faced similar situations. Replying to a follower, Richa posted, "More thakela is loss making mammoth @airindia ! They don’t even have a human team handling their twitter account. Just bots."
