In a significant development, India's star player Abhishek Sharma has expressed his frustration with IndiGo Airlines,  claiming that staff mismanagement at Delhi airport caused him to miss his flight and ruin his 'one-day holiday'. In a strong statement on Instagram, the 24-year-old detailed his ordeal, calling it the 'worst airline experience' he has ever had.  

Abhishek Sharma Lashes Out At IndiGo Airline 

Abhishek Sharma claimed that despite arriving on time at the correct check-in counter, he was unnecessarily redirected to another counter by the staff. Once there, he was informed that the check-in had already closed.  

Here is the full text of his statement: "I had the worst experience with Indigo at Delhi airport, and the behaviour of staff, especially counter manager Ms Sushmita Mittal, was absolutely unacceptable. I arrived on time at the correct counter, but they redirected me unnecessarily to another counter. only to tell me later that check-in was closed, making me miss my flight. I only had a one-day holiday, which has now been completely ruined. To make it even worse, they are offering no further helpful assistance. This is by far the worst airline experience, and worst staff management I've ever had," Abhishek Sharma said in his Instagram story.

The Punjab cricketer added that he had a single day off from his busy schedule, which was completely ruined due to the incident. He further criticised the airline for offering no meaningful assistance to resolve the issue.
