IndiGo systems at airports across India crash for 1.5 hours, restored

There were long queues at check-in counters across Indian airports Sunday afternoon as the system of IndiGo — which accounts for 41% of domestic air traffic — went on the blink for over 90 minutes. The problem was encountered across all airports on IndiGo network. It was finally resolved around 5pm. The system glitch started at 12.35pm that crippled the airline's check-in process - issuing boarding passes and check-in baggage tags. This led to formation of long queues across airports. Angry passengers took to social media to register their complaints with the active-on-Twitter aviation minister Suresh Prabhu and his deputy Jayant Sinha. Security agencies, as of now, do not suspect any foul play or cyber-attack in Sunday's system crash. "The airline has told us it was a technical glitch," said a senior security official. <br/>
