Flight SG325, originally scheduled to depart from Patna at 5:10 PM, finally took off at 10:05 PM. Upon landing at Mumbai’s Terminal 1 at 12:42 AM on Saturday, passengers were informed that their luggage had not been loaded onto the aircraft. SpiceJet assured them that their belongings would be delivered to their homes the following day.
This lapse left many passengers stranded without essential items, including important files, medical documents, baby care equipment, and meals. Frustrated travelers were left with no immediate solutions.
