@hm_custserv You cancelled my order on 16 Nov & the refund hasn't been processed. I have spoken to your customer service 3 times, raised a complaint ticket on 19 Nov (0111638034) & today I'm being told that it will be 'resolved' in the coming week (same as last time).

Through Her Lens: The Space Without, looks at space—public, private, temporal–as a site that gains meaning from the stories, questions, dialogues and negotiations that unfold within it. It constitutes visual stories on space by #women, #Queer and #transpeople from the #Northeast.

@IndiGo6E If you do not wish families to sit apart during the pandemic, then why would you not make seats available to people who bought tickets? And why would you assign random seats on the same PNR? Has logic completely failed your company? @IndiGo6E @DGCAIndia

[Bidisha Mahanta @BidishaMahanta]

@IndiGo6E is your web check in a joke that only allows randomly assigned seats to family, travelling on the same PNR, during a PANDEMIC just because we are not willing to shell another bomb for every seat booked on the same ticket? DON'T come at me with this is our system. (1/3)

[Bidisha Mahanta @BidishaMahanta]

@IndiGo6E And where I hve to explain tht a 2.5 yr old cannot be assigned a random seat away from family IN THE MIDDLE OF A PANDEMIC, then pls let me know how is this system one that is not actively jeopardizing evryone involved.@DGCAIndia @MoCA_GoI

[Bidisha Mahanta @BidishaMahanta]

@IndiGo6E If ths is the procedure that you can choose to hide behind this seat availability nonsense tht only allows ppl who cn pay another set of money to choose seats together (there are 0 unpaid aisle/window seats)

[Bidisha Mahanta @BidishaMahanta]

If the only options for free seats during a pandemic are middle seats, during ANY kind of check in (tele & web), then what you are doing is endangering health of ALL travellers for financial benefits. @MoCA_GoI @DGCAIndia @IndiGo6E

[Bidisha Mahanta @BidishaMahanta]

The lst time I trvlled I had to negotiate with ur customer care & ON GROUND STAFF who seemed equally helpless in assigning seats. On the same PNR. And tried to convince me that I shd buy the seats. If I'm paying 20k for 3 seats, you can be rest assured I WON'T (2/3) @IndiGo6E

#CallForSubmisions We are extending the deadline for the 3rd edition of Through Her Lens! The visual research programme in collaboration with the Sasakawa Peace Foundation aims to expand photographic practices of #women #queer #trans & other #marginalisedcommunities in the NE.

[Bidisha Mahanta @BidishaMahanta]

@YatraOfficial is this a joke? Why is your customer care not responding till 8 am? How did you issue a PNR and a booking reference, take full payment and then refuse to validate the booking?

[Rony Dutta @RonyDutta]

@YatraOfficial has sent me the e-ticket on mail but @airvistara says they haven't received the payment and can't issue my boarding pass. The flight is at 8:20 am tomorrow. What am I supposed to do???
