She further expressed her disappointment, saying she once felt proud to fly with Air India, especially since it is now run by the Tata Group. “It’s beyond disappointing what happened today and how these guys are handling their customers who are afraid to travel now going forward. Shame on them!” she added.

Netizens Respond with Criticism

While some supported Meerraa’s concern over flight safety, others pointed out that her request for a refund may not be valid. Several users reminded her that a refund can’t be issued unless there's an official advisory or change in airline policy.

One user commented, “Did you read the cancellation policy before booking? At least read it now.” Others suggested she should have approached the airline’s customer support before making the issue public.

The debate has sparked a wider conversation about airline policies and passenger rights in situations involving fear or tragedy.
