Vistara, co-owned by Tata Group and Singapore Airlines, has been hit with a number of flight delays and cancellations over the last few days, the airline said on Monday.<\/p>\n
The airline said its teams are working to stabilise the situation.<\/p>\n
“We confirm that we have had a number of flight cancellations and unavoidable delays in the last few days due to various operational reasons,” said the Vistara spokesperson. \u00a0<\/p>\n
“Our teams are tirelessly working to stabilizing the situation. We regret the inconvenience caused to our valued customers due to these disruptions,” the spokesperson added.<\/p>\n
The irate passengers took to internet to complain about the long delays.<\/p>\n

Early in March, the flight operations of Vistara were impacted at Delhi and Mumbai airports, mainly due to the non-availability of pilots.<\/p>\n
Vistara is in the process of merging with Air India post its privatisation and Singapore Airlines acquiring a 25.1 per cent stake in the once state-controlled airline.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
