He faced a frustrating delay after discovering his flight had no pilot at the Bengaluru airport, prompting him to vent his frustration on social media.

“We’ve boarded a plane with no pilots and waiting on the plane for hours. Why would you board passengers knowing that you have no pilots for the flight?” Warner wrote on social media.

Air India Comes Up With A Reply

Warner’s frustrated post quickly grabbed attention, sparking a wave of reactions. After that, the Air India authority came up with an apology saying the mishap occurred due to the challenging weather conditions of the city.

“Dear Mr. Warner, today's challenging weather in Bengaluru caused diversions and delays across all airlines. The crew operating your flight was held up on an earlier assignment affected by these disruptions, which led to a delay in departure. We appreciate your patience and thank you for choosing to fly with us.” Air India responded.
