Indian low-cost airline 'Go First' has been fined 1 million rupees, about 15 million won in our money, in relation to an accident in which a passenger was left on the runway.
The Civil Aviation Authority of India (DGCA), an aviation management and supervision agency, took this action the previous day, saying that Go First's ground work was not properly handled.
The Civil Aviation Authority of India said, "There was a lack of communication between the airport, airline staff and flight attendants regarding the boarding of passengers on the flight."
"Regarding this, we asked the late First to explain why measures were not taken against those who abandoned their duties, and we reviewed the response," he explained.
Earlier, on the 9th, a Go First flight to Delhi took off from Bengaluru Airport in southern India, but 55 passengers waiting on the runway failed to board.
After checking in their luggage and receiving their boarding pass, they boarded a passenger bus on the runway.
Of the passengers who missed the flight, 53 left on the same day on another plane, and two received refunds.
Since then, social media has been flooded with posts criticizing Go First's embarrassing mistake, and the authorities have launched an investigation.
